Hi Eric,
Sorry about the confusion on the segment displays. Here is what I found for the array per segment. The counter display will have 4 x 7 segment displays showing(min:secs). The 10" displays will be homemade with each segment consisting of 8 leds. The specs for the indvidual leds is 20ma forward current & Vf of 1.5v. I used a led wizard program and it showed that each segment array would use 40ma. There is an attached pic from led wizard. So if all 4 segments of each display are on it would use 160ma, not 800ma like I originally thought. My bad. So since that is the case, would the last drawing from Bancuk be ok as is or does it still need modification? Thank for baring with me.
