Hi Bruce - Curious,
Guess a ten ohm series resistor might confuse inverter as to a dud Led, could be useful, but surely still have to change the duff Led at some point, even if to replace with a zener diode.
Was happy to discover on my first one, that with Led lenses and curious sheets of plastic, could get away with more than I suspected.
Admit some replacement Leds were of a slightly different colour, and lenses applied haywire, as couldn't recall original orientation.
No problems - But just the first one - Chris.
