sorry wedge...

cap-
10v
47uF

resistors-
according to an online resistor calculator you should use the follwing:
5mm white led- 56 ohm
3mm white- 68 ohm
3mm red- 150 ohm

i don't recall what i used as that was one from rs. the ones i got from lsdiodes are much smaller and the site had the calculator to pick the right resistors.

thanks!!! i've been trying to find the rite caps, but no luck... either it didn't work, or too much power discharge and the leds blew... lol
