cheap LEDs and fuses

[njmatt]

Not sure where to post this, but, I just got back from walmart. They have a sale on xmas stuff.

.18 for the LEDs
.31 for the fuses.

not too shabby.
now does anyone know how to check the voltage on the LEDs?

go back to walmart and look at the [walwart] for string of ights they go ni

if they don't have a resistor built in the bottom, then just use ohm's law to figure out what size for the voltage you are using

LEDs like to run at about 20-50mA = .02-.05 amps

V = IR, so R = V/I = V/ .02

put in your volts and you know what resistance to use.

hey LD, nice link
