Does this make sense?

Does this make sense? I've been getting led switch pops when using blue and green LEDs, but when I switch them out for 5mm red diffused LEDs it goes away? I know different colors have different forward voltages, perhaps that's why. Has this happened to anyone else?

Thanks,

Dan

From what I understand that makes perfect sense. Pops are usually caused by a current draw and changing the voltage will effect the current. Ohms Law. Not saying I really get it yet but hey...
