    I think it's worth pointing out that you want to put as many LEDs in series as possible before going in parallel. That way, you can use smaller resistors and have less energy wasted in resistors (thus longer battery life).

      Only if you are using standard LEDs on something like a breadboard, so that they are easy to replace. If one breaks, none of them will work if they are in series, so this might not be the best solution if they are not easy to replace

    1:25 Should be: Battery Life = 500 mAh / 120mA

    I believe at 4:23 the resistor power is 0.41976W, say 0.42W. Not 0.49W as stated. Not that it matters as the same half Watt resistor would be used. Thanks for your video as I am new to LED's and I am making my own head tracking setup for DCS. A couple of bucks in parts, an old webcam and free software is going to save me a lot of money .Your video has helped a lot.

      @@airmanfloyd719 when the circuit encounters a low-resistance path between electric potentials, the current through the circuit will spike into the hundreds of amperes. This will generate a lot of heat very quickly, and will either cause one of the wires to melt, or one of the circuit elements to destroy itself violently, such as a battery.

    I have a parallel LED circuit with two LEDs, a green and a red. They both have a resistor (that I believe is the correct value for the individual LEDs) and the red LED has a switch on it. When I turn the switch on the green LED dims when the red LED lights up.

    It should be noted that color LEDs which are in clear plastic when off require different supply voltage. However, LEDs that use colored plastic to filter the light are typically the same voltage. You should always check the manufacturers cut sheet for the correct voltage and drive current.

    Could you plz do one video on battery level indicator for 3.7v and 12v.
    People use different resistance values connect in parallel with leds to indicate battery voltage.
    As per your lecture if take same colour led of 3mm connected in parallel with 3 leds would like to glow when full if battery is 100% if battery reach to 50% then two leds if battery reaches to 20% then cut off.
    Let's assume battery 18650 full is 4.2v
    Then let's set another volt for 50% that means when battery reaches to 3.6v and when reaches to 20% means 3.2 and when battery drain to 3v complete off.
    So here would like to understand calculation of resistance use in circuit.
    Please help. I am leaning and interested to apply such circuits

    I'm repairing a parralel/series lighting circuit. It's 18V, with 7 parallel sets of 4 LEDs (28 LEDs total), each branch having one 73Ω resistor. What a disaster. Anything goes wrong with an LED and either that branch all fails, or in the case of a short, the current spikes on the others and they burn out. There's no constant current control for when anything happens to a single LED. The design is EXACTLY as you describe in this video and it's horrible. The math all makes sense until an LED misbehaves and then it's cascading failures. I'm rebuilding it as individual LEDs in parallel.
