Various Led boards for prototyping on bread board

Hi guys..

This is one of my first projects for 2014.

In most of my projects I always use some form of led for some sort of indication, and when you use breadboards for prototyping I find it's always a pain and time consuming adding several leds and resistors on a board, So I've made my own design of smd led boards which fit perfectly on a breadboard, and had some pcb boards made by iTeadstudio.

I've designed my boards in various sizes of leds 2, 4 and 8.

I would also like to say that all credit for the design goes to Matt (majenko), I published a post at Digital-Diy.com a few years ago which can be found here Led8Bus. You can still buy them from Matt (majenko) ebay store at Led8Bus. And I would also like to add that I have no intention on selling my boards (they are for personal use).

That is such a brilliant idea! Why didn't I think of that?

I mean, every single project I have ever done involves LED's!

Very nice boards there Gav, I am guessing they came from our good friends at iteadstudio? In fact, I have 10 5x5cm boards in the mail on their way to me right now!
