Thanks! I'm pretty sure the lights are 1.5v each, got them on ebay some time ago, just to spend the last couple bucks. They came in a ziplock baggy.. But I cant complain they are pretty good actually. They dont blow but i figure 5s at 4.2*5=21v and 1.5*12=18 so i could be overloading their voltage.. I have them wired all positives to + lead and all Negative to - lead. I would be more inclined to put a regulator on it, but I could always try and rewire it. Worth noting tho, I have them clustered in 3's on each light (4 total) and glued together, and they warmed up enough to soften the glue (glue gun).

The led's also have a little diode or something on their leds.
