Fundamentals of Electronics: LEDs (LED w/ No Current Limiting Resistor)

This is a supplemental video to our page titled "Fundamentals of Electronics: LEDs".

This video is meant to demonstrate what happens to an LED when there is no current limiting resistor placed in the LED circuit. If you were to connect an LED straight to a power source, such as a battery, with no current limiting resistor in the circuit path, then the LED would try to dissipate as much power as it could causing it to burst in a quick flash and burn out — destroying the LED.
