So I just don't seem to grasp this at all...
I've read about several mods involving just LEDs and a power source (batteries for the most part). Whenever I put an LED (a Nichia for example) into a circuit with just batteries it fries. Do certain kinds of batteries (lithium?) not cause this problem? Hooking an LED up to batteries without some sort of resistance seems to violate anything I ever though I knew about basic electronics.
Any advice/help from the more knowledgeable folks out there would be much appreciated!
