Bridged powerboard led resistors?
« on: February 14, 2009, 08:51:04 AM »
So, what happens if i bridge those resistors or remove them and add solder to connect the pads? Does the leds even work or does they handle the voltage? I have blue power and red charge.

When you bridge the resistors, you will also need to solder the appropriate resistor to your LED to stop it from blowing. Then the LED should be brighter but won't blow.
It's the basics that bring us down.

What if id change those resistors to 10ohm would leds become brighter? How many ohms are those stock ones?

I bridged the power resistor and swapped the LED to blue and now it's super bright.
