Need wiring help

[kaponelb]

Im new at this been looking around for a tutorial but cant find one that shows pictures still i want to do the trigger mod and also add to leds to the umd door im using blue leds what resistor would i need for 4 blue leds and how would i wire it all up so everything works with the hold swith any digrams that show how to do this

thers a tut in the tut section somewhere

how do i wire all the leds together and what resistor do i need for it

[Ch4rL13]

well if your using the 5vlt power source on the mobo u need a 10 ohm (not 10k ohm) and for wiring, i believe the answer is to wire in parralel. (i think)

[kaponelb]

so just wire all the leds together and one 10 ohm resister would be fine for 4 blue leds ima wire it to the hold switch board is that 5 volt

and is this the right resitor

yes right resistor but so you know in ur circut you have to have resistor before the positives on leds

[kaponelb]

so right off the hold board i add the resistor and then from there the power wire to the leds is that right

[kaponelb]

so is the 10 ohm resistor good for the four blue leds because i used a resistor calculator and it says to go with a 22 ohm

yes you must wire them in paralell so it doubles the current if you wire in series the psp wont be able to surply enough voltage

what u mean parallel sorry im new guys but thanks for all the help cant wait till i do this

[Blazinkaos]

  u dnt know wat parallel is uhh u better look it up on google on what it is..or wait here a pic i found google taht should help on what parallel is..

ignor the Rs that were u should stick the LED lights and the resistor attaches to the positve before u start the parallel.. hope that helps
