Subject: [alt-beam] FLEDs
I just hooked a FLED to a 9.6V battery from a R/C car. NOT A GOOD IDEA!
POP
FIZZLE
SPARK
The whole top exploded and bounced around my room. Luckly it wasn't aimed at
my face (that would have really hurt). Why am I letting you into a little
embarassing bit of my stupidity? I don't want anyone to put their eye out
making it dificult to build their Bots! :) However it does bring up a
possible weapon for BEAM warriors :)
