i got this on ebay:
http://cgi.ebay.com/3-Watt-CR123-Bl...yZ106988QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
took it apart, removed the LED and have negative and positive wires sticking out. i have a multimeter. how do i check if its safe to put a BluRay diode on it? its a single CR123A flashlight, what is needed to be done to get a diode soldered on? i put a multimeter's terminals to the + and - terminals and i get randomnly fluctuating readings then it ends up saying 0.L i have no idea what that means
first, do i set the multimeter to AC or DC?
second, how do i get the real reading? and what voltage/mA is safe to plug the 803T diode into?
