Title: Newbie - Dongle Help Please
Post by: UncleBuck on December 23, 2011,
OK, so I ordered my case from Polycase and went to order the parts from Mouser and noticed that one part was unavailable. Mouser listed a similar part but being new at this I'm not sure if the similar part would be a proper replacement part. This was also the case with a different part when I looked at the BOM for the Express. Can I ASSUME (and we all know what means) that the similar parts that Mouser suggest are adequate replacement parts?

Buck, you should list the parts in question. Some things are non-critical, others are.
and someone might have spares.

Buck
according to the data sheets the replacement will work.
they both are rated at 2.5Volts and 10 micro amps max

for use as a power on led that should be all that matered
they are also about the same size and brightness

good Luck
