Hi there, I've got a 12V SLA charger (**broken link removed**). I'm putting it in an enclosure with some other electronics and so have stripped off the casing, etc.
However, the charger has a red/green bi-colour LED that I would like to panel mount on the enclosure. Currently, the LED is soldered to the charger's PCB. BUT... while the stock LED is 5mm, while the LED panel mounts I'm using are 3mm.
I was thinking that in place of the stock 5mm LED I'd be able to run some wire to a similar 3mm bi-colour LED. Is there any reason why this shouldn't work? The led I'm looking at using is this one here: **broken link removed** I can post pictures of the circuit if you want.
Thanks for any help.
