Thanks!

It's running now. The pic with the moonlights (above) are them. I ended up using two of the 12cm ones, the third one flickers on and off. I ended up just glueing them to my light fixture (see pic below). If I can fix the other I might add it to the center in the front of my fixture.

the flickering is probably just cuz the adapter isnt high enough power. but they look nice and bright!
do you think they are bright for what they are (like how small and cheep they are)

No, the flickering is definitely a loose connection but not sure if I can fix it or not without ripping them apart and ruining them.
They're definitely very bright little lights especially for thier price. I'd like to get a purple or a red one to throw on and see what it looks like mixed with the blue.
