For starters, I want to still use a LED kit that's offered at the TCSS store. I'd like to keep this as simple as I can.
1. I run the soundboard directly to the LED like it was a resistor, essentially replacing it, right?
2. For the switch, I use the SPST Push on/off - Mom switch. It will just be a little wacky to turn both the LED and sound, right? Like one full push for the LED and then a light tap for the sound or something to that effect?
3. If I'm running the 4AAA battery pack to power both board and the LED, will I see a lowering in the LED brightness? Should I go with a different power setup if I want to do this?
Thanks in advance for any advice or answers that are thrown my way.
