No problem. Once a lot of threads get past one page they get into the Too Long, Didn't Read (TLDR) realm :)

Not yet, I haven't. I have a few drivers from an old build laying around that would work, but I want to find something others can buy somewhere convenient.

That second one should work, although I'd want to look at it more. I came across this driver which would definitely work.

I've still been searching for a lower cost alternative. $18 to drive 3 LEDs is a bit nuts.
