Yeah, I realized after I posted it that the specs I listed were for a different LED - not the one I linked to.

Second, since they are series, the total current draw for both is 30ma, not 60ma.

3 weeks out of school and you start to mix up your physics already. whoops!
Anyways, fixing that mistake, that means my resister should be a 280ohm?
