Hi all

 

I order 10 T5 leds for my Rainbow Riches - Dublin Yer Money, just to try to see how they looked

 

I replaced 10 blue bulbs for 10 T5 LED bulbs but in doing so a few of the normal red bulbs (about 5), blown, do I have to replace all of the bulbs to LEDs or am I using the wrong ones.

 

Any help would be great

 

Thanks!

 

 


I ment LED bulbs not blubs!!

An LED needs a 47k resistor from the positive voltage source to the long leg of the LED to work. In most cases.
