Hey people i want to change the LED in my ambit. I tested the led with a multimeter and got a reading of just under 3.0v. So i ordered some Led's from ebay and here is the specs of it:

Source Material: InGaN
Emitting Colour: Blue
Emitting Wavelength (nm): 465-470
Size: 3mm
Intensity (mcd): 5000-7000
Viewing Angle (deg): 20
Forward Voltage (mA): 3.0-3.2
Forward Current (V): 20-30

When i connected one of these led's it didnt work. Have i got the wrong one's and what led's do i need in order to do this?

Thanks
