Luxeon LED Source
 

All,

I have been googling to death recently, but I have not been able to find exactly what I need. I am looking for a source for encased, low-profile Luxeon LEDs. I'd like something that ideally could be mounted in a hole with only a DC power supply required (lense and LED together). I'd want it to have as wide of an angle viewing area as possible. I am thinking I have found a suitable source for the hockey-puck power supplies, but I still can't find exactly what I need lightwise. Most of the things I have found are LEDS only (not lense) and not conducive to mounting in a hole.

Any suggestions? The close thing I have found so far appears to be the Star/O.

Thanks,
Scott

Probably not what you are looking for, but I've had good luck buying from these guys: http://www.besthongkong.com/

I used two luxeon led's per wingtip, to build recog-lights. I had no problem to find and order these led's in our country. Be sure to use a proper heat-sink to prolong the led's life and light output.

This is how they came in the mail;



...and this is how they look in the wingtip;

I've been thinking of the exact same thing for our CT and eventually for our -7/9. That should be very visible and draw very little power. What is the angle on the lenses? 10 deg? Are they LuxI or III?

LED Supply is a pretty reliable group and have lots of drivers in stock, should you want to use one.

eBay
 

I have bought from both LED Supply and Best Hong Kong. Both had fast shipping and I've had no problems with their products.

Don't forget to check eBay. I recently saw 30 Luexon III LED's that were a very reasonable price.

I have bought from LED Supply, Best Hong Kong, and Light of Victory on eBay. Compared to the two Hong Kong suppliers, LED Supply is way overpriced, so I would not recommend them anymore.

The first LEDs that I got from Best Hong Kong came fairly quickly, and measured closer to 18,000 mcd for 10,000 mcd LEDs, so that was a good purchase. I finally broke down and bought some luxeons from Best Hong Kong, and they took several weeks to arrive, but they did get here, and were as advertised.

I have made a couple of purchases from Lights of Victory, and the first was as advertised. The second was 130,000 mcd LEDs that measured closer to 65,000mcd, but I really was not that suprised, just disappointed. They are now showing 140 degree 20,000mcd LEDs, which might be just what you are looking for.

Mine are Luxeon 1, with a 10 degree beam angle, they sell at ? 12,50 each in the Netherlands, that's about $ 16,00 your money....ordering 10-99 gives a 17% discount and ordering 100 or more, 30% discount. I just love their light output for the amount of current they draw, should work great for recog-lights.

I totally forgot to ask, but did you make the mounting piece yourself or was it provided?
