ControlBlock power led max current
-
Does anyone have any specs on the max current draw allowable for the power LED on the ControlBlock?
Maybe another way to ask this is how many standard 3v LEDs can be connected in parallel to the ControlBlock without damaging that circuit?

@SacGyver Without a schematic, we don't know what's driving the LED. I do not think it's connected directly to a Pi GPIO pin but maybe from the microcontroller on the ControlBlock or a transistor circuit driven by the microcontroller.

An ATTiny85 is driving the LED. The LED is connected in series with a 220 Ohm resistor directly to a GPIO pin and GND.
