| Apr 19 at 21:28 | comment | added | Attie | I've edited my answer a bit to address this... but fundamentally, LEDs / diodes aren't resistors, and they don't have an inherent resistance. This line of thinking doesn't make sense, sorry. | |

| Apr 19 at 17:56 | comment | added | user3553471 | That is super helpful, thank you! Only question: Would you have a source to read up more on the relationship between diodes and their relationship with current/volt and resistance? I've been reading introductory electronics books and they all gloss over it. | |
