View Full Version : Is 3 LEDs with a Nano Biscotti possible?

Hello,

I want to know if there is any way possible to wire up three Red Cree LEDs to a nano biscotti without it going over the 2A max load? Ive made a custom cross guard lightsaber but the one main LED doesn't have enough light to light up the cross guards. I was told it may be possible with a power Xtender but I have no idea how to go about doing that. If anyone can help me that would be great.

since the qullions are so much shorter you could run them at lower power. just make sure you recalculate resistor values if you try it.

This is possible, just use the appropriate sized resistors for your LEDs to ensure you don't draw more than the allowed current for the LEDs and the soundboard.

If worse came to worse you could use transistors in a way similar to how people use them with "budget boards."

Transistor or a Power Xtender. Both are valid options.
