madvapes is absolutely the best for mod parts. But I think I'm wiring the dual led incorrectly to get it to work. I've even looked elsewhere on the the Net on how to wire them correctly.

Looking at the pics on the madvapes site, it looks like the positive is attached to an outside leg and negative is attached to the middle leg of the led. This is also how I saw them wired elsewhere on the Net. However, for some reason the only way I can get mine to work is to attach the positive to the middle leg and negative to either outside leg for the color I want.

Any suggestions??

Ignore the pics. Do what works.

The LED in the pics must have the reverse polarity of the one your using. Electricity only flows one dirrection through a LED, so if you hook it up backwards you get nothing.

(L.E.D. stands for Light Emitting Diode. A diode is a one way valve for electricty.)

You have it working, so you have it right.
