don'T you have a radioshack near where you live ? or any kind of electronic store ?

 

or go to http://www.amazon.com/?_encoding=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&linkCode=ur2&tag=linustechtips-20

are you looking for a literal LED bulb? or one with a connector attached?

 

Because a basic red LED can be purchased on amazon or at Radioshack.

Adafruit, Amazon or ebay will have stuff like this, but as for the aura connector those are designed for RGB LED strips and will not work with theses:

They are readily available on Amazon by the roll:

I know what you meant but, i don't think they make 5 mm wide led strips

If he solders them into a row all in parallel and connects them to mobo right it will. Might be too high current draw tho. Just no GB of RGB.

[courtiousdoge]

see i specifically want a 5mmm becuz  i want it to fit in my reservoir

[courtiousdoge]

didnt read before typing sorry

 

[courtiousdoge]

also will cutting a bigger led work

Oh ok well that would be a completely different setup, cause the voltage from the aura connector would not be correct for single 5mm LED dioides, and NTF is correct they do not make 5mm based LED strips.

 

For RGB based 5mm LED diodes you will need to set it up so it uses a resistor to drop he current for those LED's. 

[courtiousdoge]

so i what other options do i have

[VTF5252]

@courtiousdoge are you any good at soldering? if so you cold make a strip and use a pot to vari the voltage from the power supply and put a hole in one of the optical drive bay covers on your case and adjust brightness like that. If you need help ask.

[courtiousdoge]

i m using bay 4 reservoir

 

[courtiousdoge]

so water other ways r there to color water (except dyed water)

Just got some individual and twin 3mm and 5mm LEDs for my EK blocks and pump/res.

Right.

 

5mm is the diameter of the indivual LED, there are strips that contain multiple 5mm LED's, but no 5mm wide strips(lol, that would be extremely thin)
