+### LED Indicator
+
+I'm adding an indicator LED, it's an RGB LED, meaning I'll have to add a current limiting resistor per color, 
+with a unique value for each.
+I then run into the issue that the forward voltage of the blue LED is higher than the supply voltage, which is about 3v.
+[What will happen to an LED if the forward voltage (Vf) is greater than its supply voltage? - electronics.stackexchange.com](https://electronics.stackexchange.com/questions/573214/what-will-happen-to-an-led-if-the-forward-voltage-vf-is-greater-than-its-suppl)
