You may be right, I will double check. If there are 4x3w CREE LEDs, then it would make more sense as mTEC doesn't like over driving the LEDs. So the driver is only for 9w, powering 12w of LEDs. I will confirm when I'm home, but it should be irrelevant. I believe LUX has 3 LEDs so I assumed the same for mTEC.
