    I haven't seen them. But don't you think they are a bit expensive for what they are?

    you're talking to someone who 's blown up every single led he's ever tried to attach to a pc in some way... the one on my hdd's still going but thats about it.

    I've been looking at the led's on maplin, and I can use the calulator at bit-teh to work out the resistors for most of them so i'm thinking about having another pla with them but those beamers looked more convieniant.

    am i right in thinking part# NR85G are the best bl00 leds maplin do, 3mcd sounds pretty bright.

    I want to light my case window, but i want it ..understated. cathodes are a bit bright for me.


    last question; the resistor goes on the positive wire right?

    They are only £11.
    I've got them in my case and it lights up nicely...
