Do I need a resistor on my new interior LED Lights?

[AStreamJake]

Hi everyone,

I just installed new LED lighting in my 2003 Airstream. Most of the lighting was Airstream's new, and much more streamlined, LED 'double pancake' lights (Airstream part # 512737). I installed these using the same wiring as my old pancake lights.

Under the front and back cabinets, I have two pancake lights wired in parallel so that I can use a single switch to cut them on and off.

My question is this - Do I need a resistor in the circuit for each of these lights and a resistor (or two) in the circuits where I've wired two lights in parallel?

Thanks for your help.

If they work then you are good to go.

They do work just fine. My concern is that, in reading about LED lights, I've heard that resistors are required to limit current flow; otherwise, they burn out easily. Any electrical whizes out there that can provide me with a definitive answer about when and whether resistors are required with these type of pancake and reading lights?

It's already wired in.
