Light emitting diodes, LEDs, are awesome and are nearly everywhere nowadays. We take a practical trip through the basics of LEDs, in particular their forward voltage and how *not* to apply a voltage across them. We compare the forward voltage of different LED colors. Finally, we destroy an LED in an incredibly unsatisfying way while seeing how current changes with voltage. To learn more with a related written tutorial, check out this page: [ Ссылка ]
