Geez, I didn't think it would take that much power to run such a small number of LED's...
Perfect case scenerio I would like to have 2 circuits:
1-side dots for frets 3-24, so 12 LED's all together (2 at the octaves)
2-front dots for same frets, another 12 LED's
Top it all off with a switch for Side, Side+Top, Top and maybe a master on/off for the whole shebang. I don't however want to have to have 2/3 of the rear of the guitar routed for batteries. I'd been thinking series circuits cause they seemed simpler but a parallel circuit could run more off just one battery, no?
Anywho, that's what I'm thinking. The only real problem with the 'guess and test' method mentioned earlier with the pot to control current is that I don't think I can get the LED's I want in town and would have to order them online. I don't wanna pay $40 for LED's that aren't going to do the right job if it's avoidable. See what I'm saying?
