Does anyone know if the current drawn from an LED circuit is a good indicator of its dimming curve? Or, for that matter, does anyone have a dimming curve for LED filaments? I know each thread is different from the other, but I think they are very similar.
The reason I'm asking is because I'm a Vixen 2.1 user and I've always disliked that the customizable preview didn't really give a good idea of what the lights would look like in real life. Now when I use LEDs, it's much worse.
So, I'm thinking of creating an output plugin that would work as a proxy for a custom preview. Essentially, this would mean taking the output from Vixen, applying a simple dimming curve, and presenting it in a customizable preview. I hope this will make it more like real life without any delays.

The correct connection of several LEDs is serial. The fact is that the defining parameter of any LED is its operating current. It is the current through the LED that determines what the power of the LED will be. Exceeding the maximum current leads to an excessive increase in the temperature of the crystal and the failure of the LED — rapid burnout or gradual, irreversible destruction. Therefore, you need to choose those designed for flexible connections and positioning . It is specified in the technical specifications of the LED (datasheet). And depending on the current, there will be one or another voltage on the LED.
