Group Deal on LEDS!

Hey guys,

since everyone always keeps asking me "what type of resistors should i use?" and "where should i purchase my LEDs?" I just tell them to go to Cwithk on ebay and just buy it from him. He gives out free resistors and also ships them for free from hong kong. They don't take that long to ship either, I get my shipments within a week.

So I sent him an e-mail to see if the Org can get a discount and he said "sure, just tell him to mention my website on my how-tos and they can recieve a 10% discount off their purchase." I was like "fo shizzle?!" I usually get them at 50 pcs for 9 dollars and you can mix and match the colors and sizes. They come with free shipping and also free resistors for each LED. These are the prices for the LED', shipping and resistors are included!

They're 4000mcd

50 blue Led 5mm USD7.50
50 blue LED 3mm USD7.50
50 red LED 5mm USD7.50
50 red LED 3mm USD7.50
50 orange LED 5mm USD6.00
50 orange LED 3mm USD6.00
50 amber LED 5mm USD6.00
50 amber LED 3mm USD6.00
50 white LED 5mm USD12.00
50 white LED 3mm USD12.00
50 p.green LED 5mm USD9.00
50 p.green LED 3mm USD9.00


Just paypal cwithk@netvigator.com the money and the size and amount of LEDs that you want and mention that you're part of maxima.org and give him the link from my website which is:

http://www.petah.org/maxima/maxima.htm

You should get your stuff within a week or less and that's from hong kong!

Eather 3mm or 5mm would be fine but i don't think 10mm can be used (it's hugh).

cwithk is a great seller, and have done 4 cars using his leds and all are great. he is cheap and good. If i were you i would just buy somne 194 led bulbs so you do not have to do anysoldering. just make sure that you sand the lense down and do not buy the focused beam led bulbs.

well I did get colored 194 bulbs but they burn out quick and turn green. I would really like LEDs and don't mind doing the work for them but I have a lack of knowledge about them so I am trying to figure out what to get

get some 194 led bulbs. not colored buobs , led 194 bulbs. search on ebay for "194 led bulbs". regular bulbs get hot and fade then blow quickley buy leds are effeciant and do not cause heat, and they will never fade. and last 1000 times longer. for 5 it will be around $15 shipped but it is well worth it.

All right guys, here's an update.

The price for 50 LED's either 3mm or 5mm BLUE LED's will be $7.50 shipped to your door with my howto page discount. These are waterclear, 4000mcd and comes with resistors. For now he replied with the price for just blue I believe, I'm going to ask for the other colors also which I think shoudln't be a problem. His paypal address is cooler08@netvigator.com

Just make sure to include the homepage discount url

http://www.petah.org/maxima/maxima.htm

and the # of LEDs and the size.

Just order blue for now until I can verify the other colors.
