During my last setup with a h bridge I was frustrated and wish I could see if the ports were active at the time they were triggered but I don't have enough hands to hold a meter , not short something out and still toggle ports to troubleshoot my setup. So I wanted to share this idea. All you need is a servo connector or jumper cables. Cut off the red wire. Connect a left long lead ( pos) to the white and short lead to ground Ta DA! Easy

Thank you Josh! for your generosity . The LEDS use very little power for testing UNLIKE servos, like I am using.

P.S. I am still trying to purchase a Full Set of OSMO's, Both 400 & 500 Series for our local Washington High School Robotics Club ?
This is a great idea Josh!
Great idea Josh. Seeing the light come on is nice and makes it easy to troubleshoot. I should make me up a rig like that. What I usually do not all to free up my hand is too cut the female end off of a servo extension. Then I use an alligator clip jumpers to attach my meter. That is nice because I can see exactly what voltage I am getting. Sometimes it's important to know how much voltage you have and if it is positive or negative.
By the way did you ever get your H Bridge working?
A few H-BRIDGES comes with leds on board, 2 leds per channel MOSTLY L298 types But still a good idea JOSH ,i havemade test lights like that to check my arduino and basic stamp boards
Also anyone needs some leds i have more then 100 of them and free
