    New Type of LED's -- What Are They Called?

    I've noticed a new type of LED creeping into the market, I have seen absolutely no videos about these types of LED's, but they are basically the answer to the oversized cob-webs that we have been subjected to. They are basically small size 300-500W super bright LED's, that are like 1 inch...

    730-740nm is NOT infrared

    I assure you it is not infra-red, I have used an infra-red blocking lens and the intensity did not change a bit, not to the eye, not to the camera, the light itself is intense, to the camera, and less so to the eye because we arent sensitive in that region, so that is the only thing to pay...

    730-740nm is NOT infrared

    730-740nm is NOT infrared

    I wanted a really deep red LED, so I purchased a $4 - 5W and the description said 740-745nm, while the envelope it came in said 730nm, unfortunately, I have no idea of how to measure, however, it would be considered and is considered to be infrared -- well by far it is not. 1. If you google...

    Modular flashlight mods.

    Very helpful actually, and has cleared-up multiple things, so much so that now I can clearly organize my thoughts and know what my capabilities and possibilities are. So, on the topic of the LED's, what does subscript f mean in Vf? because for GW CSSRM1.BM-MQMS-A535-1 the basic spec says...

    Modular flashlight mods.

    I want to get into modding, however, I find it difficult to get into. It appears that unless you have a lathe and a whole tool shed of instruments -- you would have to rely completely on others or just settle on mediocre lights shoved down our throats. 1. Why aren't there flashlights where...

    Introduction to modifying flashlights ...

    Can someone please review this thread and update it with the most current information, for example do you still recommend TaskLED as the source of the drivers? Are there any innovations?

    Help! Broke UV LED when trying to modify the flashlight.

    Thanks for your replies guys, yeah you were right, after i moved the jelly a bit more it came off entirely with those gold wires completely breaking off... I have desoldered the LED and replaced it with a scavenged similar design (domed) yellowish LED, so i turned it into a very short living...

    Can a smartphone + IR flashlight = crude nightvision?

    iPhones come with very strong IR filters, androids ear camera filters are weak and equivalent to iPhone front face camera filter. you would have to 100% disassemble an old phone, take the camera out, disassemble the camera and remove 1 of 6-9 lenses without damaging it. Current cameras have...

    Help! Broke UV LED when trying to modify the flashlight.

    I was trying to remove the stupid plastic dome that was on top of LED, that dome was loosely held with some wet silicone, and was very scratched up and blurry so i decided to carefully remove it, however after removing the LED is not working anymore. Is this common? any ways I could...

    Galaxy S7 Edge —> Flashlight?

    can you list more LED's that are high CRI but only around or exactly 4000K, maybe there's a catalog, or whatever you can recall, I don't know where to begin searching, so far I've just been searching LED's you gave me on Amazon and it's giving me options, but so far most lights are expensive or...

    Galaxy S7 Edge —> Flashlight?

    eh ended up destroying it unfortunately, it was insanely fragile... basically it has an aluminum reflector machined around it, and as i was trying to heat it up from the bottom and push the LED it broke off, but its okay, theres a list of much more higher CRI that are 3V friendly, problem is now...
