MK167 output

Hi there, I’ve recently ordered a couple of MK167 kits, and I understand they come with a yellow LED.

I’d like to replace the LED with a grain of wheat bulb. Could you tell me the voltage of bulb that would be suitable to use please?

Cheers,

J

You cannot replace the led with a lightbulb, unless it consumes less than 20mA, which is unlikely…

would this be suitable to replace the LED with?

Yes.
Most likely, the series resistor will have to be adapted. Sorry, no values, please experiment.
