Power LED?

[pLover]

How can I put a power LED on my SNES Mini board? A diagram or something would be great, but text instructions work, too.

Like a power display, like an LED that turns on when power is low? Mario has a tut somewhere, I think in random electronics section.

simple. just wire a led of the right voltage after the man power switch.

alright, so say I have a 7.4 V battery and I want to have a light come on when there is only 1 hour left of battery life. So I have to wire a 1 V LED to the main power supply? Right? wow, if so, that was easy.

No you can't do that. It will just fry the LED.

oops! i read your post wrong1 i thought you were saying that you wanted an led to light up when the system was on. this is more difficult. daftmike has a tutorial somewhere.
