Looks great about to order two of these but was wondering about the RGB leds in them, if i was to run both colorpals in parallel off the servo headers of either the PDB or BOE boards would I be overloading my BS2?
I realise each pin can source sink approx 20ma but what is the loading of each RGB led at max white intensity? Would two colorpals be over the limit for a BS2?

Its ok I've just realised from the diagram it has a on board microcontroller that drives the leds directly and the BS2 only uses signals to it.
