Hello Everyone,
I was wondering if anyone knows how to wire LEDs to the EZ-B?
What kind of LEDs are compatible as far as voltage and brightness and do I also need resistors?
Please let me know when you can.
Thank you,
Chris
I remember seeing a tutorial on this web site on how to add them to the EZ-B.
If you know what I am talking about, please send me the link.
So if I am correct, you connect the ground to the ground and the psitive to the signal?
Thanks,
Chris

Yes exactly as you have it.
Can I connect these in a series to one digital port or do i need to connect one LED to each digital port?
i really just want to connect two for the eyes and here are the LEDs i am planning on using:
10 mm Ultra Bright LED
FW Supply: 3.5V (typical), 4V (Max)
FW Current: 20mA
Let me know what you think of this LED, or if you can suggest other ones that i can use.
Thanks again for the help.

You have been a great help, and I really appreciate it.
I will let you now how it all works out.
Thanks again.

I heard that it is not good to wire LEDs in parallel. What do you think?
Just try not to mix and match LEDs of difference, use same rated and perhaps same colored.
I just ordered my EZ-B kit as well as the bench power supply.
Hopefully it wont take to long to come. I have other parts ready i just need to put stuff together.
Thanks again,
Chris
I know a little bit of programming with VB and the software is very user friendly.
I am able to do a lot and I can't wait until I receive it and begin posting pictures.
I appreciate the help and keep doing it. It is people like you in the EZ-Robot community that allows people like me who do not know as much yet to step out with confidence and actuaully build something.
Thanks again,
Chris
