Title: LED Lights
Post by: chuckwagon on July 21, 2013, 07:59:08 PM
Hey Guys, I`m new to the group and hope this question has not been asked a million times. I`m working on building my first bypass looper. I have found and ordered most of the parts, but have been stuck on finding the single LED lights that will mount to the enclosure. Are these normally sold with some type of mounting? Thanks in advance for any advice/links you can provide. Chuckwagon

Yes you'll want the LED and then an LED bezel to mount it. Where area you ordering your parts from? Radio shack has LED's and bezels available in most stores. The normal Tayda, Smallbear, Mouser, PPP, etc, have them as well.

Welcome to the madhouse forum!  You may find, in the fullness of time, that you choose to ditch the trinkets and just glue your LEDs into an appropriately-sized hole in the enclosure.  Looks very neat, imho.  Good luck with your build!

Walk before run.

Drink before crawl.

At a couple of cents each walking before running is viable.

Mistahead, that's an awful lot of good sense for one post.
