Hey i was just fantasizing about a small 445 build the other day, and i kinda wondered if the idea that popped into my head would work, could i use one of DTR's 1.5-2w 445 diodes, and hook it up to a resistor and then an 18650?
or drop the resistor and run it straight through a 10180? I know neither option is very good for the driver but im not looking for a massive run time... how much would you estimate the mw output to be? how long would the diode last?
I'm still new so cut me some slack for my ignorance, i just couldn't find anything on it through the search... thanks for your replies! :thanks:
