led mod question

Post by MarioOwnsAll »

Ok I know how to led mod now but the guide I used said that you need a 20 ohm resistor for 3 leds, what value of resistor will I need for a 4 led mod?

The book guide is outdated and incorrect. You need a resistor for each led and it needs to be at least 33 ohms.

Oh, ok but do you still wire each resistor to the little power supply on the back of the board giving the 5 volts?
