Mondial, I know that several people have successfully made this LED conversion of their stereo indicators, but there is virtually no info on this available online - or, at least, no info that is easily found in a Bing or Google web search.
I did find a modicum of info on this subject on one site, and it talked about selecting a shunt to match the current of the original bulb - that would make it less than 1000 ohms (actually 395 ohms). Does that make sense, or is that just a load of kaka that is best ignored?
I'll open the 4400 back up tomorrow morning and experiment with a couple different values, starting at 3.3K, and see what happens. Then I'll move on to replacing the remainder of the 440's electrolytics.
