    5 x 20mA LED Driver - No Resistors Constant Current Power Supply DC V Voltage
    This is an extremely useful device and can take all the headaches of figuring out how to wire your LEDs. If you are a "new-comer" to the LED world, it may be wise to start off with something like this. It will simply remove all the headaches from your installs. Simply insert this into your circuit and your 20mA LED will light up as it should.
    Another great application is to use it with automotive use because there is a fluctuating voltage in an automobile and this will ensure that your LED is operating properly at all times!
    This simple device limits the current through itself to 20mA. When a voltage is applied (anywhere from 2 to 45V) it will actively adjust it's own resistance to allow just 20mA (+/- 3mA) to pass through. This makes it a perfect replacement for current-limiting resistors in LED circuits, and you won't have to calculate resistor values or worry about a varying voltage source.
    The current limiter can be placed anywhere in the loop with LED's, but needs to be placed with the proper orientation, or it and your LED's could be damaged. The board has 0.032" solder holes which can accommodate wire down to 22AWG (tightly twisted) or standard 0.1" header pins. Note that at least ~2V across the current limiter is required for proper operation - below that and the current output will start to decrease. Multiple current limiters can also be placed in parallel to add current (40mA, 60mA, etc...).
    Units are provided on a scored circuit board that can be broken apart using pliers and/or strong fingers.
    Specifications
    Size: 0.334 x 0.100 x 0.077"
    Hole Size: 0.032"
    Max Wire Size: 24AWG (easier fit), 22AWG (must be twisted tightly)
    Current: 20mA (+/-3mA) Voltage: 2-45V (across the current limiter itself)
    Heat Shrink Type: 3/32" clear
    Heat Shrink Length: 0.5" per unit
    Here is a use example: Suppose you have a vehicle that you want to put 3 LEDs in and you want to use one of these drivers to power all three LEDs. The color LEDs are 2 blue (3v each) and one Red(2v). Let's say that the vehicle's electrical system or power source that you choose to use for the driver and LEDs has a minimum voltage of 12v. With this driver you just need to make sure you have enough voltage for everything and that's it. Let's add up our voltages and see if it is less than the minimum voltage that our source will output (12v). There are two blue leds at 3v each for a total of 6v. There is one red LED at 2v and the driver itself needs 2 volts. 2v(Red LED)+3v(Blue LED)+3V(Blue LED)+2v(Driver) = 10v. Since that is less than the supply voltage we are good to go and everything will work great.
    The LEDs must be wired in series because when you wire LEDs in series the voltages adds up as we have shown, but the current requirement will be kept the same for the circuit to run at maximum capacity (20mA). If you are unfamiliar with how to wire in series, please take a look at one of product images that depicts how to wire LEDs in series with the driver.

    Payment
    We will always ship items out as fast as we possibly can. Most times your item will even ship the same day you purchased. We typically quit processing new orders between noon and 4:00 PM (PST). Please simply check our feedback to show you how quickly we ship. Nearly every feedback comments on this.
    We do our best to provide fair shipping prices on all the items. You will have the best shipping prices if you checkout/pay after you have chosen all the items that you would like to purchase. Ebay will combine all shipping costs that are qualified for combined shipping costs.
    Shipping
    Most of the times the postage on our items are free, but when it is not we do our best to make sure that you pay very close to the actual postage price. If you feel this is not the case on items that are not "Free Shipping" then please let us know and we will make the adjustment before you pay. We do ask that you email/message us before paying for the auctions you have "won". Thanks.
    Feedback
    We will leave excellent feedback up receipt of payment. We ask that once you have received your item you leave an equivalent feedback.
    If, for some reason, there is an issue that needs resolved, please simply send us a message. We are people, just like everyone else, and are willing to help resolve any issues there may be.
    Please contact us sooner than later if you have questions regarding a product/shipment/installation. We would rather you ask before installing/using an item, if you are unsure, and get it right the first time.
    We will address negative feedback and "star" ratings. Negative feedback is meant to be used if a seller is completely unresponsive and unwilling to work with you. We are ALWAYS willing to help and resolve any issues. We do ask that you please don't send any "rude" emails and give us a change to help. Again, this is such a rare instance we can nearly guarantee this won't apply to you. We ship the items as fast as we possibly can and via the methods stated, after that we have no say in what the postal system does with it. If they go beyond the estimated delivery time, it is not our fault. Please give us a break regarding this. Email us if you feel your item should have been delivered and isn't.
