Hello
We recently modded our xbox 360 useing this tutorial http://www.instructables.com/id/Customize-Your-Xbox-360-For-CHEAP!/
But im having some problems geting the LEDS to light up brightly, i used 8 red 5mm, 1.8V, 20 Milliamps, 120MCD?, LEDS. I wired them up in parallel and put a resistor on them like on step 11 of the tutorial. Im useing a 470ohm 5%Tolerance resistor (yellow, violet, brown, gold)
Am i useing the wrong resistor? and if so, wich one should i use to make them the brightest they can be?
On the tutorial, it says that the input is 12v is this correct?
Any help is appriciated.
