What if there are no color LEDs?

It often happens that you don’t have it at hand colored LEDs. But you can find a way out of any situation. For example, make colored LEDs from LEDs white glow.

We need: sandpaper (preferably the finest), markers of the color we need, white LEDs.

We process with sandpaper Light-emitting diodeso that it becomes matte. This is done so that the paint penetrates deeper into the surface and does not rub off.

We paint with a marker.

Voila! Here is our color LED.

Good luck !

Honestly, nonsense! Colored LEDs They are cheaper than white ones, and setodids can be found in a radio store or in Chinese equipment.
This is how light bulbs are painted (without sandpaper, of course)))

What does the cost have to do with it??? They tell you that there may not be any of them at all!!! The method is normal and would be very suitable for inserting somewhere into the device.

If you don’t have markers, you can paint them with colored paste from pens. That’s how I used to paint the lights on the Christmas tree and the lights!
