I have a PV powered 12V system that lights my workbench using LEDs. I am experimenting with LEDs and am building a boat that will be lit by LEDs.

I have been using star 1W LEDs, and just ordered a bag of 5mm warm white LEDs to try out. The stars seem to get quite hot, and I am hoping the 5mm will stay cool and maybe be more efficient.
