    Default Need shopping info for LED's and resistors

    Ok, I've been looking all over the place, ebay included, and I havent been able to find a decent place to buy LED's and resistors to work into my mod.
    Everywhere I have looked, they want to sell you led's or resistors in packs of between 50 and 800
    I just need friggin 5 or so of each!!
    If anyone has some good stores out there that they know of on the web, please lemme know what they might be - I need to find some nice bright lights and resistors for my mod.
    Thanks!

    Please state which country you're in.

    If you're in Australia, look at Dick Smith Electronics or www.ledsales.com.au

    If you are in America, www.frozenCPU.com may have what you need.

    If you're elsewhere.... then I'm not sure.

    another choice for america (it may be international, i dunno) is radioshack. They usually have a big display with all their LED's and resistors, just go rummaging through a little and you'll usually find what you need.

    When I need 5 or more LEDs, I buy a pack of 50 off eBay. It's cheaper than buying 5 crappier ones from radioshack.

    Lol I just buy a few Playstation 2 Afterglow controllers and just take the leds out of those. I don't have time to order them and ****. I just go walk down to radioshack and buy some controllers.

    Never buy from Radioshack or The Source now so called.

    www.lsdiodes.com if you need a handful, other than that ebay it, I've ebay'd a few values of resistors and they have all been good thus far. As well as led's and my other electronics gear.
