led wiring question

droeblek9 · 05-September-04, 02:34 PM

ok, i have 6 leds that i'm going to be installing today. i'd like to run them in parallel connection, but i'm unsure how to wire them to the molex. i'd like to use a total of 2 molex connectors and run the leds in 2 groups of three (three off of each connector). what i'd like to know is how to solder the wires together (ie: one wire from the molex with the three led wires soldered to it at a single point?). i have only a slight clue of what i'm doing, and any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
