Then I went for a single horizontal one and it was still too bright. Here's how I tamed it down with the added bonus of extending the life of the LEDs and driver greatly. The original resistors were 3.6 ohm and 1.6 ohm in parallel giving a total parallel resistance of 1.11 ohm. So the removal of the 1.6 ohm resistor effectively tripled the resistor value (just the 3.6 ohm resistor) and reduced the power to about a third, which seems fine. The circuitry senses the voltage across the resistor/s to sense the current, so the higher the resistance the lower the current required to reach the sense voltage threshold.
