    Default Add a 5mm Accent LED?

    If I wanted to add a 5mm Blue High Flux Accent LED light to my saber, can I just wire it into the 1000mA Buckpuck along with my main LED and the LED from my AV switch or should I wire it in separately from the Buckpuck with a resistor?

    Can the 1000mA buckpuck handle the extra LED?

    The LED I want to add is a 5mm LED 3.4v@20mA

    I would wire it separately from the buckpuck.
    We all have to start somewhere. The journey is all the more impressive by our humble beginnings.
