<DIV></DIV>&gt;btw, you can get 1400 LEDs from mouser for less than 3 bucks a piece:

<DIV></DIV>&gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; I want to convert my gauge/instrument lighting over to white LED's, but 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;I'm 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; trying to figure out just how to do this. A quick trip to Radio Shack 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; provided a 1000mcd white LED at 3v, and the sales people had no idea what 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;I 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; was talking about when I asked if higher voltage and wide angle versions 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;were 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; available. Other than that I did find out that I'll need to run a 470 Ohm 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; resistor on the LED, but would I need this with a higher voltage LED? 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; Any help before I turn my dash into a fireworks and smoke show would be 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; appriciated! :)
