My brother is thinking about buying an led wiz for me and i was wondering whats the best way to hook up an led wiz havent build my cab yet but all leds are 12volts ive seen and led wiz does only 5v how do i hook it up to an led wiz

WhereEaglesDare:

please show use what a 12v LED looks like... you may want to go buy a couple hundred regular LEDs on ebay for 5 bucks

Nevermind

it comes with the buttons last time i checked but i was looking at leds from arcade emulator . net because i have bought led buttons yet or leds for that matter i was also looking at paradise arcade shop's led buttons

BobA:

Bank voltage select terminals can set banks of the LED Wiz to use external supplies.   This means you can set it up to use a 12V supply for your 12 V LEDs.   See the LED WIZ documentation for details.

lilshawn:

the LEDwiz drives LED's with 5 voltsy (LED's run on 3 or less volts) ...the ones you have seen have a higher ohm rating resistor to make them operate on 12 volts. these are not the correct LED to use with the LEDwiz. these LED's require a smaller ohm resistor to allow them to operate at 5 volts.

if you do purchase this item, the instructions included show how you have to hook them up.

from the manual:

--- Quote ---LED's are like goldfish. They don't know when to stop consuming and will "pop" if you feed them too much. For this reason, you must install a resistor in series with the LED to limit the current to an amount that will make the LED bright and happy.
