You just need to add a resistor to the led. Doesnt matter what side. for VV i would figure the resistor for the middle voltage. So if the vv goes from 3 to 6 volts i would figure the resistor for 4.5 volts. here is a link to a LED resistor calculator.LED Resistor Calculator

Couldn't a LED be put in between the switch and control pin and wouldn't that be always at battery voltage? Or would it be too much a draw on the switch?
Thanks Java for the info about the resistor. Now where would I sodler all this together too? Do I do what CC^says, or would I solder normally like I would do a mod without a VV?
Not really sure exactly what you building. usually anywhere after the switch if you want it to come on only when vaping.If the control pin is used to turn the regulator on then after or the output of the regulator is where you want it. Before the switch it would be on all the time.
Not a good place to put a LED. there is a design out there that has the led hooked up like that , But it has sunlight problems A led hooked up backwards turns into a light sensor. Folks that left their mods in the sun were having them activate and burn out their atomizers. Anyways best place to slap a led on a mod using the regulatorcontrol pin is after the regulator or the output of the reg.
I'm not really sure where I'm putting since the person I'm building it for hasn't really mentioned it. I assume that it would be after the switch, so in which case I would just follow a basic wiring diagram correct? http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...asic-wire-diagram-flashlight-mod-diagram.html
Since you can't put it between the switch and control pin you probably would put it between the power that goes out to the 510 connector and the ground on the other side of it..so it would light when you pushed the button without a atomizer on it. If you only hooked it on one side of the connector there would be no connection to light the LED without an atomizer..don't forget the resister or the LED will go poof lol...
It depends. LEDs are different. And voltages are different.68 - 100 ohm resistor
depends but .. for normally led works that fine. Try and find the right value. My answer was only a start, you want everything served

Hey, some time ago I tried a LED on hand to use it as an an indicator. It was a very specific, mostly for a small lights. Finally I choose a 10 Kohm resistor, otherwise the LED was too bright Everything depends.
Everything depends.- Status
