Finally new 5x5 LED array assembled

This is a thing of beauty.   Finally after getting some time of work I have had time to solder together this pcb.  This one is using the new blue LEDs from SuperBrightLEDS.

The first light test and sigh...  One of the red leds is bad and they put a green led in with my blues.  Guess this is why the desoldering gun is handy.

After everything is fixed here is the end result.  A nice looking led array if I say so myself.  I made two of these and still have yet to light up the second one.  Next I will be running these 72 hour strait to burn them in and to make sure the leds are not going to burn out prematurely.
