  1. I want to make my own LED lights and i ordered 10 3w red LEDs to practice with.

    Im wondering what resistor i should get, ive been recommended
    2x 1w 1ohm resistors
    Wiring 2 series of 5 LEDs in parallel with a resistor on each

    The LEDs have a forward voltage of 2.3v and a forward current of 700ma

    I have a 12v 1.5a power supply i plan to use.

    Will this work?
    How else can i do it?
     
  2. Someone must make their own lights. I looked up alot but idk why i would need a 1w when its 10-30
