270ohm is typical with an led. We have used up to 2K to reduce the
brightness here.<br>

I am not much of a electrician, but afaik it should be enough if you
put a resistor in row with the LED. Perhaps someone who knows more
about that than me should callculate that through, especially the size
of the resistor, or you can use one that can be adjusted...
