Aron - I finally received my parts from Small Bear, so I'm nearly ready to go. Have to be out of town for the best part of a week, so I'm not quite there. One more question:
I ordered a blue LED from Small Bear, and it arrived with no markings on the package at all. To calculate the size of the resistor, I will need the LED forward voltage and the LED current. The Muzique.com calculator uses default values of 1.8 and 5, respectively, but these give you a value of 1440, pretty far from your approx 470. How do I go about getting the two values for my particular LED. Thanks.
