Electronic questions - allowed here? Mark Unseen   Jul 5 18:20 UTC 2006

Hey, are questions on electronics allowed here? I wanted to know if there was
a way to figure out the rated current for a super bright LED of unknown
origin.

Increase the current until it burns out, and then use half that.....
