dubka Posted October 2, 2009 Report Share Posted October 2, 2009 "Frustrating" doesn't begin to describe this one. And I'm based in London, UK so ordering another bag seems ridiculous...I'm only after 12 yellow and 12 green. I figure if I find the right spec I could just pick some up at maplin.So close to finishing as well. Gutted... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilba Posted October 2, 2009 Report Share Posted October 2, 2009 I haz spares of SmashTV's yellow and green 3mm LEDs. Buy me a beer, I'll send you 12 of each.<---- see the beer icon? ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smithy Posted October 2, 2009 Report Share Posted October 2, 2009 So in other words,if you help Wilba get drunk, he would practically do anything for you! ;)Muhahahahah! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilba Posted October 2, 2009 Report Share Posted October 2, 2009 Actually I'm already too drunk to work out how much 24 LEDs plus postage would cost... just buy me the bloody beer already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pingosimon Posted December 18, 2009 Report Share Posted December 18, 2009 So...does anyone know the specs? I need to order some LEDs, and all the ones on ebay seem to be SUEPR BRIGHT OMG. What mcd rating should I look for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smithy Posted December 19, 2009 Report Share Posted December 19, 2009 (edited) So...does anyone know the specs? I need to order some LEDs, and all the ones on ebay seem to be SUEPR BRIGHT OMG. What mcd rating should I look for? Do Smash TV's resistors require resistors on the mb-6582 CS? Or is the brightness from them just right? EDIT: I meant LED's LOL Edited December 19, 2009 by Smithy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pingosimon Posted December 19, 2009 Report Share Posted December 19, 2009 No idea. I'm just now ordering parts for the control surface. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilba Posted December 19, 2009 Report Share Posted December 19, 2009 No idea. I'm just now ordering parts for the control surface. I don't know SmashTV's exact parts, but these are good LEDs for sammichSID etc. "LED Standard Green Diffused 570nm 20mcd" Mouser: 638-204GD "LED Standard Hi-Eff Red Diffused 625nm 12.6mcd" Mouser: 638-204ID Don't be put off by the low mcd rating. These things glow nicely even in a matrix, using standard 220 ohm resistors, they have good diffusion and have the common package like what most 3mm LEDs look like... i.e. just like SmashTV's LEDs.

EDIT: I meant LED's LOL I have used 1K before with the red ones (TK's MB-6582) but you could use 220 ohm, it will not be too bright. Definitely use 220 ohm for SmashTV's green and yellow LEDs.
