I’m working on a project and want to use incandescent lights instead of LEDs. I thought I would use an incandescent lights from a string of mini-incasdent Christmas lights. I have not measured the current draw of one light but the voltage for a light is about 2.5 volts. I suspecting the current draw of an individual incandescent mini-light is about the same as a LED. My reasoning is the current draw for a string of LED Christmas lights is almost the same as a string of incandescent lights.
I’m wondering if the Uno has enough power per I/O pin to drive one Incandencent bulb?
Anyone given this a try?
Thanks
