led's

Post by Acamori »

i'd like to put a couple of white leds inside my car for accent lighting and was wondering if i needed to drop voltage or anything to keep from burning them up. i know there are different size ones that can use different voltages, is there one that can handle strait 12V?

my buddy runs Oznium.com and he sells TONS of LEDs and related products. Give it a look, you might like it.
As for 12v LEDs, Oznium will give you resistors w/ the purchase, or Varad (http://www.varad.com) sells there's w/ built in resistors.

Resistors are very cheap and easy to come by at Radio Shack.
