An actual-size PCB layout of the power LED and USB charging circuit (in Fig. 4) is shown in Fig. 10 and its components layout in Fig. 11. After assembling the circuit on the PCB, connect CON6 to CON3 in Fig. 3, and CON7 to CON4 in Fig. 3. Use CON8 for mobile charging through the USB cable. Affix all the LEDs (LED2 through LED7) on the top or front side of the cabinet.
