I love the job Knievel did on his neon cab, and I want to try something similar. I have ordered some LED's with resistors from ebay to use with translucent buttons, but I also want to power my Atari LED cone start buttons from the same 12V line so they are always lit as well.
As far as I can tell, all I have to do is use the resistors that come with the ebay LED's for the buttons - and then use a 1k resistor for each of the Atari buttons. This is based on several posts that mention using a 330 Ohm resistor when powering Atari LED's with a 5V supply.
Does this sound right? The last thing I want to do is melt one of my precious Atari LED's.
