LED to GPIO without breadboard - Raspberry Pi Forums
hello all,
firstly...am right in thinking gpio pins give power when pi on? want light 1 when pi on (i.e. light turns off after type halt pi still plugged in).
secondly, following set work:
female female jumper (one of these: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/171848457609?var=470780327431) 5v gpio pin to...
1 of these 68 ohm resistors http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/301450274359 jumper to...
1 of these blue leds http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/121101185943 jumper gnd pin?
(i don't want solder or glue pi, i'm planning on hot gun gluing else together)

the 5v pin on when power present, it's not want.
use gpio can write program runs @ startup , turns on led, can detect if linux going shut down , turns off led.
it's ok not use breadboard. f-f jumper cables fine. have twist wires of led , resistor make circuit. check forward voltage of led. white , blue leds can not driven directly gpio need greater voltage turn on. if want use 1 of you'll need use transistor.
