Re: Blue LED's

2002-06-03 by ezra_gold

The LEDs themselves are cheap. The problem is powering them. It 
depends how the circut is set up. If it is just a straight voltage 
powering the LEDs (as opposed to current control) there will be a 
problem. Blue LEDs need more voltage to light up. If the scheme is 
current control (I might be able to tell if they used one of the 
standard chips for this application) the LEDs should just plug in.
