xbox power
« on: December 19, 2008, 10:54:31 pm »
I'm thinking of connecting 20 ultralux LEDs to my xbox power supply, can anyone tell me how much power they draw, and if the xbox will be up to it?

regular xbox? I had all kinds of junk running off mine, it should be able to handle 20 LEDs with no issue. I had mine running 4 LED fans and about 35 super brite LEDs

If you're replying to a troll you are part of the problem.
I also need to follow this advice. Ignore or report, don't reply.

You will need to run the LEDs in parallel . I would use a y-spliiter and take power from the HDD molex (either 5v or 12v depending on if you are using the single 5 volt or Super-Bright 3-chip 12 Volt LED )

As Malenko said the Xbox psu will handle it no problem as you will only be drawing ~175-500mA
