LED (wiring diagram)

Click on the switch!
The current passing a light emitting diode must be restricted by a resistor in series connection. The yellow, green and red LEDs need 2 V, the blue ones 3 V. The electrical circuit on the top can be operated by a 12V-power supply. In this case a 1kOhm-resistor is acceptable. Less than 1 kOhm damages the LED, more reduces the luminous power.
