Hi everyone,
First of all i would like to tell you that this is an "LED CONTEST" instructable so please vote if you like the project!
The idea came when i realized that i managed to gather a lot of remaining wires of components after cutting them for a pcb work.
There was in my bag handrents of them...

You can power up the led via a usb type b cable from your pc usb output or from any other usb charger....
