Alarm LED Lights
 

What size resistor do I need to change the alarm LED to blue? I have the LEDs they are 5mm.

1/8 inch should do it.

Assuming that your LED is 3.0V 20ma (typical blue LED), you need a 470 Ohm resistor. If you can find out exactly what your LED needs (should be on the package if you got it at radio shack/fry's) enter the numbers here to get a better figure. Err on higher resistance if you're unsure.
