LEDs for the GameCAB driver board?
« on: July 06, 2005, 11:15:53 am »
Quick question, I purchased a LED driver board from GameCab and was wondering if I have to purchase a certtain voltage LED for it?  If anyone has this board, what LEDs did you purchase and where did you get them?

I have searched through the forum but couldn't find a specific answer.  Thanks.

Giza,

They work great with the LED board.

Are they bright enough to illuminate your buttons to where you can see that the buttons are lite?  Also, what buttons are you using?
