<content type="html">&lt;p&gt;True, but keep in mind that you don&amp;rsquo;t need to be running these at 20mA each.  You probably can&amp;rsquo;t tell the difference between 20mA and 10mA, and even 5mA is plenty bright.&lt;/p&gt;</content>

<content type="html">&lt;p&gt;An Arduino can only drive about 100 ma total, so if you are using more than 5 of these on one Arduino you might start having problems, unless you connect transistors to the outputs. Use google to search for transistor driving circuits for Arduino. Hope this helps.&lt;/p&gt;</content>

<content type="html">&lt;p&gt;They are the same LED, looks like the info just wasn&amp;rsquo;t entered the same way for both. Both these LEDs and the COM-00531s have a Min. Forward Voltage of 3.2V with a Max Forward Voltage of 3.4V. I hope this clears things up! :D&lt;/p&gt;</content>

<content type="html">&lt;p&gt;Hello there, just received a box of these but&amp;hellip; they are not that bright at all. To my eyes they look less powerful than the normal red led I got in my arduino kit.&lt;br/&gt;
Is there any other way to check instead of using the normal led sketch from arduino? Also, is there any encreasing the currante on arduino pins? Please let me know asap thanks a lot&lt;/p&gt;</content>
