Finally, the bi-color LEDs has arrived. I was searching for them for weeks. and I did not know I needed them. Actually, I just wanted a bi-colour LED that has an Amber (Orange) LED in already. Ok, maybe even yellow. I don’t mind pairing with other contrasting colours except red. Ans it must be about the size of an 0805 LED. I have seen a few combinations such as red/green, red/yellow, red/blue, blue/green and red/white. But never orange/white. So, it is a must have.
Initially, my order was cancelled by the eCommerce Platform because the Seller was not able to respond in time. I was slightly disappointed as not only would I need to restart my search but it would take some time before the money is refunded. This LED is not cheap either.
Before accepting defeat, I messaged the Seller a few days later, which he responded. Apparently he suffered from health issues but he is OK now. So, I re-ordered the LEDs again.
But it is still tiny.
It does look good with the Mobile Phone camera but irl it is a little too intense,
Man, should I change the resistors to 0603, which is so much smaller than the pair of 0805 on the right?
