Christmas Lighting

First, LEDs run on DC not AC. So plugging in LEDs into a standard XMas light string may have bad consequences. For my LED projects I got an AC to 12vdc convertor from this guy on ebay (gongadealz): http://stores.ebay.com/id=16792258  
Only $8 including shipping.
Then from www.allelectronics.com I got a cig adaptor with bare wires, plus some resistors. Now I have 12v to play with for my LED projects. Not a lot if I start using those high brightness LEDs which take up to 4vdc, but it's a start. Allelectronics has great prices on stuff but their shipping is $6 I think, so it pays to make a bigger order.

tawa:
I should probably add that the convertor converts 110vac to 12vdc. But they have other convertors too.
