    Electricity 101. I'm taking notes. Teacher(s) Wanted!

    I caught the fever before I ever made one, this weekend can't come soon enough. I've always been a tech nerd and even worse always liked building things with my own hands, ever since I was little and boy scouts gave me a knife and a piece of wood. But I am planning on starting with the basic...

    So throwing on the 470 ohm resistor makes em just want I want em to be? A tiny little light to show me whats on or not? Now lets say I wanted to add a flashlight to my box mod, I get the correct resistor and pop it in before the LED and add it to a separate switch? :D

    Probably directed at me :p and I drew them to the best of my ability on paint with the random colors so I would remember :oops: Uhm, well that is what comes with the LEDs from madvapes, but from looking around it looks like you need to drop different voltages for the different colors? as...

    Jeeze, Mr. R-Man, you are a lifesaver =] Plus you seem to be a late night browser like myself, so that's a definite plus. Tons of info from ya and it is all very much appreciated. Now with the info from the parallel vs series, I guess I gotta change what I was trying to do with this mess XD...

    Alright, thanks a bunch! =D Hopefully it does work. I'm kinda tempted to tear one of my batteries apart that I have now(blu) and make a passthrough out of it just so I don't have to wait for recharge times =X

    Hmmm, well I noticed you said batteries in series, what is the difference between running them in series and parallel? And would that even be a correct diagram for it?

    The one at madvapes, the solder at least, is a tin and lead mix. Don't we want to stay away from lead? I am starting this modding too, so I picked one up from lowes, with a lead free rosin core solder. But what the hell is rosin?

    Hopefully more sooner than later. I'm planning on modding a bunch this weekend so I want to get most of it down before then. Now, its time to ask about wiring diagrams. The difference between in-line and parallel and all that other mumbo-jumbo.
