Introducing a new standard for LED indicator brightness: your LED should be bright enough to be clearly visible when illuminated by a FireSword V in high mode at 1m distance. And NO BRIGHTER.pic.twitter.com/81XcBo2yir

New resistor values for Glasgow system LEDs. I think I got them pretty reasonable.pic.twitter.com/h4jUCXcNF1

Lower exposure with the FireSword, they're clearly visible.pic.twitter.com/Z1ZToZibr9

Note that that last photo isn't in the dark, it's with normal room lighting and lowered exposure. They definitely aren't *dim*. Here's an actual shot in the dark and one in normal lighting and exposure. The camera exaggerates them a bit though.pic.twitter.com/SSpvkfE5Xe

For reference, when I started they were 10 times brighter or so and hurt my eyes *even through a layer of tape*.

These are the resistor values I ended up with. Yes, the currents are in microamps.pic.twitter.com/3XE2r5rlib

that actually looks a little dim. Words I don't think I've said about indicator LEDs very often.

The first photo shows them being illuminated by this. Believe me, they aren't dim. They're bright enough to be perfectly visible in any sensible circumstance, and no brighter.pic.twitter.com/FiFl0bLfLN
