Quick question...

The LEDs can be wired like they are lightbulbs, if they are raw (meaning without anything else on them), you have to add a resister to limit the current to them, they will pop if you apply too much current.

By the way, $405 for that?

Hell I need to do this for living, $405...

 

Just grab the power from the on/off switch. Use a volt meter to find the correct leg.
If you are going to buy the led's from ebay, either 3mm or 5mm, that are specific for a cb, like a meter light, they will already have the resistor in them, with wire leads. Or you can buy them bare (much cheaper) from somewhere like radio shack. But as ridgeline said, be sure to use a resistor.

 

I looked on ebay, they have them ready to go but ... It seems another thing I should be selling.

$1 a piece in quantities of 10. It costs maybe 30 cents to make.

 

Look at the cap and resistor "swing kits" on there, talk about makin a killin...

 

Yeah, I can't believe what people are buying. I think it is they don't want to put an effort into learning so they would rather buy.

 

If they're buying these kits, I'd think they want to learn how to do it, just not sure of the parts needed, or maybe dont know where to source the parts. So an all inclusive kit is easiest. We all gotta start somewhere I guess

 

So it's a single final radio I'm pretty sure to begin with they turned it into a dual final radio with no heat sink ??? And they want $405 for it. Must be the chicken lights that make it worth so much... I dunno---- Ima think in I'm keeping me $405 in me pockets..... thank ya very much
