In various stores recently, I've noticed a new type of LED in flashlights. It looks large and flat with tiny dots in about 3 rows on it. When the light is turned on, the "beam" is just a complete flood, with no spot whatsoever. It looks like something that would be more at home in a lantern than out the front of a flashlight. I used different words in google image searches to try to come up with an example, but can't find anything. Does anyone know what I'm talking about? What kind of LED is it?
EDIT: Just did some more looking and discovered that it's called a COB LED. Here's a link to a picture of one. http://sc01.alicdn.com/kf/HTB1ZtE3JVXXXXaZXXXXq6xXFXXX1.jpg
