How much current (mA) can you run to the LED lamp?

The allowable current value of the LED lamp is limited depending on the ambient temperatures.

Each product has its derating characteristics which show the relations between the allowable forward current and ambient temperature. See individual technical documents. When designing, take care not to exceed the derating characteristics.
