Looking for a driver for 3x Xm-L

Flashlight Modding and DIY Parts
1

I’m building a 3x XM-L light. I do not want a boost driver because I will be using a 3s 3p li-ion battery. I would like something that can be flashed with a new firmware (ATtiny13 based seems to be what I would want for this.) A buck driver would be preferred if it can regulate output reasnonably, but I am open to a linear driver wired up in this configuration with the needed resistors to drop voltage enough to prevent burning the driver with the low VF of the XMLs.

Not sure if all on one board interests you, but there is always this: As requested, 3 XM-L Driver/Emitter module DIY

I already have the battery and LEDs on hand.

Bought this one: https://illuminationsupply.com/8xamc7135-304a-selectable-mode-driver-p-142.html?zenid=4c22f3b1c758cf90a213612de8b0c54c
I could have gotten it cheaper, but illumination supply gets stuff to me quick.
I’ll use a power resistor to drop the extra volts.

3s3p LiIon = Max voltage of 12.6V

8xAMC7135-304A Driver = Max voltage of 6V

That should cook nicely.

Edit: Never mind, scratch that, I see you’re going to hook it up in the odd configuration with the driver in the middle…
