I guess, like Neil, that these LEDs come with an internal current limiting resistor or show a high threshold voltage. You'd have thought so, wouldn't you? But I can't see any mention of anything like that in either of the articles. As these articles are obviously aimed at the non-technical, you'd have thought that they'd have made some comment about how to ensure you have the "right" LEDs - wouldn't you? It is especially disappointing that a publication such as Electronics Weekly didn't notice this... |
