    I have not seen him for several weeks now. If you can find his email you may want to email him.

    If you look at the pictures closely you maybe able to figure it out. except maybe the circuity but that is simple anoth.

    it looks to me as if he is powering the led's directly off of the power suppy connecter. Is that wise? wouldnt you want to throw a resister on there to limit the current draw so that its not a burden on the power supply?

    In past mods that I have done I have used the 5 volt LEDs so that I could attached them directly to the 5volt line in the computer. Pretty much the only time that you may need a resistor is when you need to cut down the voltage going to lester voltage LED.
