I purchased the Maxitronix Electronics Lab 300 in 1, (I'd seen recommendations for it on some forum or another). I did the first experiment and was up in arms with what I had created. It was everything I had been looking for in an electronics kit, and more. I skipped ahead a few experiments and got to the introductory ones (how a resistor works, etc). When I realized that applying a higher voltage would make the LED brighter, I was senselessly tempted to see how bright I could make it. I plugged the 9V chord directly into the LED.
It flashed and went blank.
Since then I haven't been able to get a light in not only that LED but ANY of the LEDs. It would make no sense that LEDs that aren't connected to that one would get fried too. What happened? The batteries are fine, because I've tested on the speaker. Could anyone tell me what is going wrong???
