The best thing about doing this mod is getting to eat pringles.
Wire all the LED's in parallel. This will let you get away with one resistor, But the value is going to change. Using the same estimates that I gave above, Vf = 2V, If = 20mA
10 in parallel would take 200mA (10x 20mA)
5v supply:
R = 5V - 2V / 0.2A, R = 15 ohm
12v Supply
R = 12V - 2V / 0.2A, R = 50ohm
The good news here is two 100ohm resisters in paralell will equal 50ohms.
So it would go something like this
CODE
12v

Then arrange the LED's in a circle around the pringles top. Word of advice, people who say "no" as a reply usually are useless. They have all the time in the world to troll around forums, but not enough time to look into helping you. Ignore them forever.
EDIT: fixed shitty ASCII art
yAH I know i just ingore people like that. That say dum stuff in my post.. But thanks for all your help you are GREAT!! But i am a big noob at this and want the best out of it i can get. Can i use 2 100ohm resistors and have all 10 leds connecting to one each other. Like this i will draw a digram and tell me if its correct. The red is the resistor and the black is the LED.
