I'm in the process of converting my van into a camper, my next step is the installation of interior roof panels and therefore, lighting.
Im using LED G4 9SMD spotlights in series, maintaining the same current for all spotlights but decreasing the circuit voltage. these are the Leds:

I have three of these in series, powered by my 12v leisure battery, I know how to choose resistors for leds but everything i find online refers to these kind of leds:

my question is, do the types of LEDs I'm using require a resistor?
I ask this because the following equation: V=IxR requires me to know the maximum continuous current rating of the LED I'm using, which is not indicated anywhere. all i know is it's 10-30v.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, Thanks!
