After seeing someone use a bucks puck on a parallel running 12 instead of 6 im confused...what are benefits from running either one.. i had my leds in parallel, when u run them like that u can have twice as many bulbs? my drivers for 12 bulbs in series so if i run parallel i could have 24?
yep it can be confusing, but with the driver you are using hopefully you were wired in series positive to negative and so on.
If you were using a led that only could use 350MA then you could run two sets of 12. The sets of 12 are in series and you take the two positives together and the two negatives together and that would be parallel. This would be using the same voltage but would be using 700MA. That way you could run 24 off the same driver, BUT the 12 LED's you were using will give you more light than the ones that you could run 24 of.
Now I am sure that you are even more confused, that is why it is better to just copy one of the DIY kits that are available. JMO
