LED's Sizes
« on: March 18, 2008, 09:02:21 AM »
Hey everyone I was wondering if there is another size of LED that can be used besides the 0603 LED's. They are so damn small it's so hard tp solder the wire to them, i've tried so many times but coudn't get it to go. Any help would be appreciated.  :help:

hi, yeh i know what you mean, they are really small, i asked the same question once, and i was told to try 0805 leds, i got em, and theyre easyier to solder, i used a tutorial off youtube on how to solder them with ease, so yeh, 0805 leds maybe worth a try.
