Thread: Blue AV switch Resistor?

  1. #1

    Default Blue AV switch Resistor?

    I'm wiring up my AV switch led to my nano biscotte v3 and was wondering if I needed the dynaohm resistor or if a .5 ohm 3w resistor will work. Everyone I see has recommended the dynaohm but it isnt in stock. Which is best to use?

    If you use my tutorial (in this section), I'm sure you'll be able to figure it out.

    Just as an FYI, the .5 ohm 3w resistor is not the right one for that switch LED.
    We all have to start somewhere. The journey is all the more impressive by our humble beginnings.
