Ok, so now everything is 5v (except for the clock/data lines to the shift register) -- I have a 100uF cap - will that do? I'm ordering a set with 1000's in it. How do you know how big to use? What's a good ref for a total newbie (who's bad at math) for this kind of stuff? if I wanted to order optoisolators what kind would I order?
