So something like a Pulse Width Modulator for a motor would work very well here?

Thanks for the welcome expansion of  knowledge on LED's here on the LML.

Using a transistor as a simple ON/OFF switch is an effective way to address controlling the power of LEDS.  With this approach there is no series element (resistor or transistor) that's dropping voltage/power and wasting energy in the form of heat.
