Alternate Wiring Scheme, all component values are shown in the Schematic. Using one 200ohm resistor wired in series with all components. You may cause one LED to become damaged if you do not use the correct voltage/LED/resistor combination, which could cause a cascade reaction, supplying too much power to each of the remaining LEDs, and this could destroy all LEDs in the circuit. If you use a resistor of value greater than 200 ohms, you will decrease the brightness of the LEDs. For maximum brightness, use the components with the given values as shown in the diagram.
