It does, doesn't it...
well, I have contacted
computronics for some more details.
Looking at 12Candela 5mm LEDs in
a
water clear package. forward current is 30mA, voltage nominally 3.6V,
and
22 degree half power angle..
Cost is A$820 AUD, about ?305 GBP so
far
but I have asked about multiples..
in the meantime, if anyone finds
a
UK/EU source, holler please ;)
Ian.

Re: ADSL vs Cable
yeah,
I found a company in korea doing
MR14 MR16 sized replacements for the small Lv Halogens, in 20W
equivelants.
These were clusters of 15 LEDs, each producing about 3Cd..
Since
digging more and more, I found a maglite like torch quiting a 42 Candela
output in white, using THREE LEDs!! it was also 100,000 year (Ten Years
continuous use) LED life, and about 100 hours on three AA cells..
so
I
had a further rummage, and found what I believe to be the highest
rated white LEDS available on the market now...
12 Candela units,
>from
?300 + shipping)
The bizzare thing for me is this:
the
2500mcd
ones use 20mA at about 3.8V optimal..
And the 12000mcd ones, despite
being nearly five times brighter use, er, 20mA at about 3.8V
I'm
totally smitten!!
The idea of having a cool crisp light (I like a
slight blue tint at the best of times, so the lack of any "red"
component
doesn't bother me) that can be used with normal usage patterns for 25
years
and uses about >ONE< Watt in place of a 50W Halogen, whilst
producing
an equivelant 80W light level is pretty amazing..
I'm having
ideas
of totally cool under cupboard lighting, but having twice as much light
for
about 4% of the leccy... :)
more research required...
as an
aside, if we don't get a European supplier, is anyone interested
in chipping in for some of the LEDs from Computronics. I think it works
out
at about 60p each. ?

Nichia have the
brightest white LED's on the market at about 6.4cd in a T1 3/4 package
or
3.2cd in T1
http://www.nichia.co.jp
Not sure
who
in Europe holds a disty franchise for Nichia though, try Arrow, EBV
somebody like that. I'll try and find out who it
is tomorrow.
Other
companies to look at are Panasonic, Lumiled (Agilent and Philips Joint
venture to replace the lightbulb with led's) and also Agilent
Technologies.
Although you would probably need an account with
somebody
like Arrow or EBV to get access to stuff from the above
suppliers.
Regards
Paul
