Wiring & getting started

  1. Check polarity

    The longer lead normally indicates the anode (+) and the shorter lead the cathode (-). Verify before soldering if either lead has been trimmed.

  2. Choose a resistor

    Use a current-limiting resistor in series. For initial testing, choose a value that keeps current around 5 to 10 mA.

  3. Test before installation

    Confirm polarity, light output and measured forward voltage before fitting the LED permanently.

Note: The electrical and optical values are supplier-stated for the light-green variant and have not been independently characterised by NZN. Measure the LED in your circuit and calculate the series resistor for the required current.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to the questions buyers ask most.

Why is the minimum quantity five?
These LEDs have a low individual unit value, so they are supplied with a five-unit minimum. Choose a larger quantity for volume pricing.
What resistor should I use?
Use R = (supply voltage - measured LED forward voltage) / target current. Start at about 5 to 10 mA. A 330 ohm resistor is a conservative starting point for testing from 5 V.
Which lead is positive?
The longer lead normally indicates the anode (+), while the shorter lead is the cathode (-). Verify polarity before soldering if the leads have been trimmed.

Why Buy from NZN

Useful parts, fair prices and someone local to help.

I'm Lukas, an engineering student and maker based in Te Awamutu. NZN grew out of a CNC build that dragged on for months because every missing cable, bolt or electronic part meant another overseas order. I started the shop so Kiwi makers can spend more time building and less time waiting for the next parcel.
