Wiring diagram for led "moon lights"

[black hills tj]

Hey everyone,

I'm going to pick up some 500mcd blue led's and some resistors. What size resistor should i use? I can either use a 6v or 12v power source...which is ideal? Anyone have a wiring diagram for led moonlights? I've been searching all day and just keep getting more and more interested in the specifics.

Thanks,

Mike

Take a look at those two links. I think you should find enough information to get you going. On the first site I would like to suggest that you scroll down and look at the parallel configuration. That way if one goes bad, the rest of them will not stop working.
