I will never go as far as you have to achieve scale realism.........all credit to you Mr Burger

Thanks Mr. Bix...
Yes I have have a little OCD issue...

Mr Burger can you tell me please where you found those brilliant green mini led's? I'm looking to add a convoy light to my Sturmtiger and Nashorn. I really like the look

I picked them up at a small local electronics shop here in SoCal. The store is called Orvac Electronics. I tried to find the lights on their online store, but the online store doesn't list half the stuff they carry. The stock number of these lights is NTE30003 green surface mount. Here are a couple links i found that sell them online, or if your unsure I can pick up a pack and send them to you...

Oh and don't forget to pick up your resistor for the circuit, otherwise the LED will burn out...I found out the hard way

Yes indeed I'll check these out. I've learned (finally) that those little things are actually supposed to be installed

Is there a specific 100 ohm resistor to use?
This is way outside my comfort zone lol

Hey Wayne,
I'm no electronics wiz by far...I just asked the guy at Orvac shop what resistor I would need if i hook up for 4 of these SMD LED's in series and ran them from a 9 volt battery. He gave me a pack of 100 ohm resistors. Not sure if its completely right, but it didn't burn them out this time, so He must have had a good idea on what I needed.

He will have worked it out using a formula.

Google ‘led wizard’ should find you an online led calculator which tells you the resistor for your array. You input the voltage and mA of the leds. E. g. 4 leds and 7v

Thanks Estnische for the info!! I will use this tool as I get more into making LED layouts!
