ya the battery is, im unsure if ther LEDs are though, as they were plugged into the 'junk' electronics board, i have powered then from 6V and they have not blown yet but i rather check to see if anyone knows there voltage rather then me wire it up and in a weeks time 'poof'  %%

I would say 3v as it will not over power the lights or not give them enough power. :police:

On mine the leds were powered straight from on/off switch in series with a 1K resistor to each led.
