Standard LEDs • These are our basic LEDs. So what is a “standard” LED? It’s about the brightness of most LEDs you see – visible in the dark and under indoor lighting. Our experienced eyeballs puts these around 50 mcd. We have red, yellow, and green. In bi-color, we have red/green and yellow/green.
Bright LEDs So what is a “bright” LED? At least 20 times brighter than the standard - dazzling in the dark, annoyingly bright under indoor lighting, and visible under sunlight. We have red, orange, yellow, green, blue, violet, and white. In bi-color, we have red/green, red/blue, and green/blue. In RGB, we have them in, uh, red/green/blue :-) Dale and Dwayne search the world looking for the best LEDs. Seriously. To borrow a metaphor, LEDs are like a box of chocolates. We never know (for sure) what we are going to get. What you see here is what meets our standards.
