    yes, let me find it in a sec...But for now, the usb line carries 5v at 500ma, so just use a led calculator to bring down the voltage of the line to the led's specs. Very simple mod, just put an approproate resistor on the red 5v wire and connect the ground (black) and the 5v (red) to the appropriate leads on the LED.
