I found that the drive works fine with 3V~6V DC for a single 3W LED. But it get pretty hot if driving it over than 6V. I think the only way to use it over 12V is when you connect three 1W LED in series. I will test it and post the result it later

Hi,
I have six of the driver boards as shown in the pics as well as the 3w visible and IR LEDS. When connected as per the photo, the LEDs do not light and no current is drawn with a 3-6vdc input.
If I test the LEDs directly with an I limited bench supply they operate fine. Any idea why the driver modules are not working?
Thank you for your help.
Regards,
Bill

All six not are working by the way I posted? Make sure +/- is not reversed or it will cook the driver
