Gonna do my first DIY LED with Cree CXA3590

[BecauseIgotHigh]

I am from Germany there is no supply so far.
Thanks I had to order it through farnell they only have US Stock and charge me
30$ extra total for 8 is 80$ not nice.

I allways try to use the stuff in my garage
so I use an old insulation transformer bridge rectifier e condenser
an an simply constant current source to power them.
I also have old intel core coolers with fan

do you think each of them could handle the max 50 watts disipation?

diameter is 80 mm

Yes
