Huh? You can't generalize about LEDs like that! There are many different
LEDs with different electrical characteristics. Given the OP's post,
you can't even state that a simple resistor is what he wants; he may
want variable lighting, in which case a potentiometer is what's needed.


I can state what I like. it is a free society.
what I wrote works for me.
