I would like to build my own lunar light string. I have all the parts and cree moonlight leds. I am wondering if they are wired in series or parallel and also if they dim using pwm signals? I wired a string up last night in series and plugged into the legacy lunar sim module but they wouldnt work. Not sure if the old module isnt working, my program is wrong or my wiring is wrong. Any help would be appreciated.
thanks

I have been thinking about doing it too as their lights are little expensive for 3 little lights. I wonder if you still have to get the module for it to work right.
 
I did it because I didn't want blue lights.

The LED's are wired in series, and they are not 3W lights, I used 1W and they work. You need at least a couple wired in series or you risk burning something out since they are not designed to operate with just one LED.
