IPAC LED driver board

Does anyone know another supplier of those little IPAC LED driver boards that Oscar came up with a while back?  Gamecab has them for sale, but they've been 'out of stock' for quite some time now:

I know there are plans on oscar's site to build your own, but I'd rather just buy a pre-made one in this case (just don't have the time at the moment).

Thx,
Andy

What are you needing it for?  I don't have one of them but I do have a project board put together that may or may not work for you.  Anyway the price would be right...FREE.

Well I just want to hook up a couple superbright LEDs to my existing player one and two start buttons so they flash in games like centipede/asteroids when a credit is added (like the keyboard LED flashing supported by MAME).  The IPAC doesn't have the juice to drive the superbrights so this board is needed.

whammoed:

Ok, it will do that.  It doesn't have resistors in place for the leds but if you tell me the specs of your leds I can throw a couple in with it...just wire them in line with the leds.
Anyway, I'll snap a pic of it tonight so you can decide if you want it.

Wow, awesome!  Thx man!
I actually don't even have the LEDs yet.  I was just gonna get some red superbrights.  Something along these lines?

Anyone know a good supplier of these without having to buy hundreds of them at a time?

EDIT: just saw your leaf button lighting thread.  Do you have the red LEDs too?  Can I just pay you for all this?  :)
