As far as easiest/quickest goes, our UltraLux buttons have quick-connects for the LEDs and we sell a daisy-chain harness which enables all the LEDs to be wired in a few minutes. You could take 5 volts from a stripped-out USB cable (red and black wires) but the PC might give strange USB messages. Or use a PC disk power connector, again red is 5V, black GND. |

Randy can tell you how much current each NovaGem draws, since I don't know this off the top of my head. --- End quote --- They draw 100mA, I had to ask him the same question. :) |

In my opinion, the easiest is to get 12v automotive LEDs and connect them directly to the yellow lead of a power supply lead. No resistors, no adapters. I drilled small holes in Happ translucents and stuck them up inside. |

Lights on and light off both would be great. :) Coleman |
