Actually no, its a 12x blu ray build. What battery configuration would i need to power it at 412 ma? (dont care that much about battery life) BTW Nass has an awesome avatar!!!!!!!!!!!

With a BR-build, it will not be the battery that is the problem. As the current increases, so does the voltage that the diode needs to run at that amp-setting. The Flex-Drive can only boost to just under 6V, so I am thinking most have found the FD to be good for about 360mA @5.8V. Your limitation will be your driver, not the battery.

Ahhh, now i see, i was a little confuesed on that. So where could i get a driver that would be able to power this beast at 412?

Oh, its fine, i have searched around and it looks like there really hasn't been much done with this diode yet, so I think Ill just wait for this diode to get around a little more, better tested and fully understood, before i complete this build.Looks like Ill have a flexdrive for sale though...
