| Resistor question
Hi all, I need to know if I am building a 5 parallel LED array, which according to the Linear LED site, I need 5 150 ohm resistors for a total of 950 ohms using the 7.4 from my battery. Could I instead use 1 1k ohm in the wiring before the parallel branches? Thanks, Scott |

Look under the electronics section. There is an in depth discussion on lighting. But the best way is one 150 ohm resistor for each led.
