Changing the LED colours?
Changing the LED colours? Posted on: 11.01.2010 by BOUVIER Pascal What dya reckon guys? I had a good look at the PCB but not really being to board savvy I have no idea how one would go about this? I'd love to change mine to green LEDS!? Any ideas? | |
| robert chanda 11.01.2010 | Get two similar soldering irons, heat them up, use them as "tweezers" to melt the solder and lift the LEDs from their pads. (Professional gear actually has tweezer soldering irons) Buy new SMD LEDs of a similar size (SMD components are specified as width and length, e.g. 0603 = 0.063" x 0.031" = 1608 metric = 1.6 mm |

| BOUVIER Pascal 12.01.2010 | Thanks so much, i'm gonna look into this. I'll post some pics when i'm done! |
| Glynis Mangona 11.01.2010 | green will look ill! |
| Adolf Hit 11.01.2010 | Pictures Here is the link for the LED I used in the design for reference. http://nz.mouser.com/Search/ProductD...bEtoXtgQ%3d%3d Since you will be hand soldering it on any 1206 LED should work OK |
| BOUVIER Pascal 11.01.2010 | Hmmmm sounds awesome. Looks like i'll be sourcing the soldering iron from work. |
