LEDs question
So I got my dreamcast back from a friend who has had it for over a year.... And I stumble on this forum (and others) Which sparked me to do some moding of my own.
I put a LED in the VMU and the controller:
I replaced the main light on the DC, but wanted to add two more to the inside where the disk is (which I have already made the holes for):
Can I wire these two to the main LED or should I put a resistor in there some where or.... What would be the best way to do this? ^_^

Re: LEDs question
I did the same thing, I routed them to the PSU. They were 5v LED's so I used the 5v pin (obviously).

Re: LEDs question
I hooked the two 5v to the 5v pin but they both bluw after a bit, should I use a resistor and what size do you think?
