Oh dear, now you've got it.

Goodness me, some of these leds are bright.

I've got one on the bench at the moment that I'm soak testing.

It's a very tasteful amber colour.

It's mounted on a custom circuit board to keep it cool.

It's taking 350mA at the moment.

The dropper resistor is getting hotter than the LED is.

And it's dazzling.

I had spots in front of my eyes for 5 minutes after looking at it.

Only another 24 of these to mount on pcbs for my super daft punk table (miniature yellow version).

I have a desire to blow my dose.

Sadly, I suspect it's going to hurt.

A lot.

Update:

It did.

But not as much as I expected.

And you say you haven't achieved anything today

And you say you haven't achieved anything today

I've soldered 4 LEDs onto pcbs too.

<sweat>

[zeitghost]

In fact I'd soldered 9 LEDs onto pcbs.

It was a little sad that 8 of them were 90 degrees out of alignment.

Ho hum.

A judicious bit of track cutting & all was well.
