led's

[niik000]

sence my car is slow im gonna put led lights on the incide to light up the floors like a limozine, 50 blue led's +the 8 in the speekers, but how should i power 58 lights? im worried if i just wire them up to the battery they will all just burn out, but leds are kind of bult to take abuse like that so i dont know, how should i wire therm up?

Re: led's

You're putting LEDs in your car because it's slow.... riight..

Depends what kind of LEDs you have. If they are 12V leds, they should work fine, otherwise you have the option of wiring in parallel or series using resistors. All depends what the handling power those LEDs have.

Re: led's

i'm gona go on a guess and say there 5mm 4-6v 30mA rating

im doin my map lights and cargo lights and door lights soon with 27k cdm (so bright as hell cuz i hate the crapy ones we got already) i'll get pics

Re: led's

haha well if it wasnt slow i wouldnt wast my time with crap like this,
ne way this is all the info i have on the lights im ordering
Size: 5mm / 0.2 inches
Voltage: 3.2V - 3.6V
Reverse current (uA): <=30
Luminous Intensity Type Iv (mcd): Average in 10000 for the clear white and 5000 for color LED
Life Rating: 100,000 Hours
Viewing angle: 25 - 35 degree
Absolute Maximum Ratings (Ta=25°C)
Max Power Dissipation: 80mw
Max Continuous Forward Current: 30mA
dont relly know what that means exept that i gess i need to get some kind of resistor

No it doesn't, its the internet you clod.

Where are you planning on sticking all these LEDs... i mean... the inside of an F-Body isn't very big.. its gonna be kinda bright isn't it?













P.S. I know.

Re: led's

So if I hooked it right up to the battery would I need one resister per light, or is there like a fuze thingy like the things people power there amps with that works like a resister that I can hook up to the leds
