'World's Brightest LED' reviewed :)

[Packy]

enjoy!

Man, this thing would be fun if my case had a window... 😀

[edit] to give proper credit, I snagged the link off of Maximum Reboot.

holy krap. i need a 3mm of those

 

[ShadowDJ]

OMG!
I remember In Scientific American (possibly) I saw a writeup of a pyramid shaped experimental LED. I'm sure it holds titleas the brightest. :Q
I want one, anyway. Blind some friends with it. SWEET.

 

[MedicBob]

LMAO, that LED is wrong, wrong I tell you. The other half will never allow that in the house. I should order 2 anyhow. That would look wicked inside of a modded monitor, coming out the vents on top shining on a wall.:Q

 

[MillhouseOfHorror]

/me ordered as many as his mom's credit card can handle! 😉 hehe

I like that monitor idea...been looking for something to do with an old CRT of mine...Thanks! 😀

 

[Packy]

If this was wired as a strobe you could probably kill people with it 😉

 

[WarCon]

You got to love it when someone figures out how to require a heatsink on something...........😀

 

[hudster]

That's no LED....it's a space station!


geez, man, you should need a license to operate that thing or something!

 

[punkrawket]

monitor modding you MUST be careful... it would be neat.. but i don't believe it's a good idea

 

[Packy]

*zaaap*

Holy crap....that's nuts. I wonder when LED technology will be able to take over things like maybe car headlights - anything that uses DC and needs a lot of light.

LEDtronics. Click the "Automotive..." section. 🙂 They don't have front headlights yet, but I've noticed more and more delivery trucks with rear LED brake lights. Even if one burns out (highly unlikely), the rest still work.

 

[Jeff7]

Yeah, I've noticed them too in some trucks. I think MaximumPC reviewed an LED light thing for laptops - I think they said it was rated for 100,000 hours. Lots of traffic lights out here are using LED's too now.

 

[Packy]

I wanna know if someone actually tries to use this for a mod 😀

 

[ChefJoe]

man, I'm seriously wondering if I can hook a few of these up to the 5fame.com flasher kit and put those inside my case so I can see em through the clear fans.
