Source for surface mount LEDs
kcoleman:
I am in need of some surface mount LEDs like the ones that come in the light harness for the IPAC. Here is a picture of what I am looking for

I have searched all over the place but cant seem to find a good source. Any help would be much appreciated.
Also can I wire these LEDs serially with the IPAQ harness. I purchased one of the harnesses which goes to play one control panel and want the same lightes on the player two panel. Can I just connect a wire between the player one LED and player two LED?
Regards.

Edit by moderator: fixed the image problem. Guess the site in question doesn't allow hotlinking to images.

That is a panel mount LED. You can find sevaral places that sell them with a Google search. LEDtronics comes up first, but they can be a bit pricey.
If you wire two LEDs in serial, you will be reducing the voltage in the circuit. Check that the total voltage drop across the LEDs is less than 5 volts.

your not kidding about being expensive.

Radioshack carries them in store. At least they do at my local Radio Shack.

Whoa! Youd be better off buying them from the website than radioshack! Radioshack is only if you need something so bad at that very moment. Buy something for $0.59 a piece and sell it for $5.99 + tax :P Thats the radioshack way!
