1Solder LEDs
Solder LEDs together:
- Anode red to Cathode green
- Cathode red to Anode green
-
2Solder resistors
Solder a 10KΩ 1W resistor to each LED solder joint.
-
3Solder power cord
Solder the other side of each resistor to one of the wires of the power cord.
-
4Safety
Inspect contraption that non of the solder joints touch each other. Insulate all solder joints appropriately with electrical tape or heat shrink.
-
5More safety
Put LEDs and resistors on a non-flameable non-conductive surface.
-
6Plug in
Do NOT hold the resistors or LEDs in your hands and then plug the power plug into an outlet. Enjoy LEDs blinking. If you have a new phone with high speed video recording, I really would like to see a slow motion video to actually see the LEDs blinking.
