    So for my project I'm planning on running some LED's off a usb, my question is how would I go about doing this, and how many LED's would I be able to power off 1 usb? Greatly appreciated as google worked but still a bit unclear about how many LED's 1 usb can use... Not sure what kinda LED's imma get, all I know is that they'll probably be SANWA buttons that have LED's built in, atleast I hope so...

    1000 2V or 500 3.5V

    edit: Make that 900/450, let's have a safety factor.

    Thank you good sir, after doing some research I've discovered the buttons I want are LED lit, and they don't require any seperate wiring for the LED's in them
