We propagate the statistical uncertainty of experimental N N scattering data into the binding energy of 3H and 4He. Here, we also study the sensitivity of the magnetic moment and proton radius of the 3 H to changes in the N N interaction. The calculations are made with the no-core full configuration method in a sufficiently large harmonic oscillator basis. For those light nuclei we obtain Δ Estat (3H) = 0.015 MeV and Δ Estat (4He) = 0.055 MeV .
