## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good LEDs, low price
*by F***9 on January 31, 2014*

These LEDs have great colors and brightness. Easy to use, pretty good tolerance. All of mine worked exceptionally well and each color works. I am using these with an Arduino board. I tested them all with a color mixer sketch (of my own). All the mixed colors showed well, except the purple. The purple showed, but was hard to see without holding a piece of white paper behind it. Still, the LED works very well.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ CC LEDs work so well!
*by N***P on March 24, 2014*

I take away one star because I wasn't given the correct resistors with my pack.The actual LEDs are VERY bright. They're diffused correctly so they're great for any project that needs a colored indicator light. I've used about 6 of these now. And would buy again!It was marked on the pack that "included" were 24x 200ohm and 12x 220ohm 5% resistors. My pack didn't include these, though I was given a full refund! I had plenty laying around though, so that worked out in my favor.Common cathodes are EASY to use and these are a good choice!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ So far so good
*by B***N on November 10, 2018*

I've only used one so far but it has worked perfectly for my needs. I created a cable out of an old Ethernet cable and a 10 pin connector and wired the led so I could connect it to a serial port on a motherboard in a Windows PC. The LED itself is a perfect replacement for the power led in the computer case. I'm using Windows 7 with Windows Media Center and when I have a recording in progress, this led turns red. I'm also able to program it to turn other colors for different reasons. Using software called LEDsDriver by Slick Solutions and EventGhost for different events.
