So the upshot is - be consistent in your projects.

The LED doesn't care whether the resistor in on GND or RPi side - just make sure LED us oriented correctly.On Apr 21, 2014 11:59 AM, "Grawburg" <grawburg at myglnc.com> wrote:
Looking at various projects for the Raspberry Pi I see LEDs wired with the resistor between the GPIO and the LED anode and the cathode to ground, and I see it wired with the resistor between the cathode and ground.  The first seems better (based upon what I'm learning from all of you), so I wonder when is it better to connect the LED in the second manner, i.e. ground--resistor--cathode?

Thanks,
