    Can you givea brother some tips on wiring these? They are on a board so do I only need one positive and one negative to power all seven?

    Mike, what driver are you using for them? Which exact LED are they? I'd guess that the entire board is wired in series so.. typical fv would indicate you would need ~26v to run one board at a constant current... but you should only need to hook it up to one pos one com.

    Correct. These are wired in series, so just a single positive/negative pair.
