Thanks for the replies gentlemen. I now believe I did smoke the lights. Originally, I tried them on a AA battery, but it must now have had enough voltage. The 7.2 likely burnt 'em up. I never once saw a glimmer, spark, etc.
I got it all worked out though...I bought another SCB light set, ran two pair of white LEDs up front, one pair of red in the rear and ran the other pair up to the driver figure. I now only need to make a "switch" at the body mount so that I don't have to undo wires when removing the body.
Thanks!
