fancy resistor calculator here tells me that i need a 1/2W (RS has fairly limited spectrum of resistors) for 3.3v LED with a 9v battery. the thing is, the LED package says : " FW supply: 3.3v (typical), 3.6v (max). if i plug 3.6 into that same calc, i get 1/4W. which should i go with (1/2 or 1...

i'm suprised it's doing anything they way you have it hooked up.

go buy as close to a 228ohm resistor that is greater then .145 watt and hook it up in series with a 9v battery.

7cd should be decently bright.

edit:
Looks like Jayson needs to check his math.

BSP. Come on Steve, you know you want to.

considering we're not going to be at HPT much longer....yeah.

maybe we'll have to lower the bar a bit and kick Tom out to SM. I'm sure everyone thinks they can beat me.

BSP grid. Looks like some tough competition.

it would be interesting if the location was determined based upon weighed average of previous year's champions. ie, bring up a map, start from the center of the US, and pull the dot closer to each of the champion dots. you get 90% of the champs from Southwest, and suddenly the nationals is in AZ!.....

thats good enough for me. I am just trying to find a class my friends can run in next month. they all have different cars with their own mild mods. and of course they would like to run together. they will not be competitive what so ever. can any car run CSM. (meaning an evo, and an RX-7, and a miat...

Gio and Steve arguing. this started SPECIFICALLY (not mad at Reverend Curt) but when he post about hosting NOTLD @ the parking lot of Rhino's (the strip club), part of me laughed, the other part felt like, "uh-oh, I sense the thread is starting to drift " so I immediately posted that the ...

Just think of how many Ekstrand like people there are lurking out there ;) nah, Steve is small beans.
