Unbelievable, but you guy's filled two forum pages today. LOL

If you want to buy these Ledtronics-LED's you can buy them at netdisty.net. Ledtronics won't ship small orders.

Ask for Nasser to get tech support.<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/tt/msgs/418753.phtml">https://forums.audiworld.com/tt/msgs/418753.phtml</a</li></ul>

a few questions Juergen . . .

First of all, what is the advantage to using LED's? It can't be a cost thing, they cost quite a bit of money.

How different do they look from a regular bulb? Do you have a comparison of the bulbs and what they each look like installed in your tail lights?

Thanks.

that place is a ripoff. should be only $6. wholesale is $3.

you can make your own and is far brighter at higher luminous angles for $6. of course you have to buy in bulk and know what you are doing especially with dropping resistors.

8000mCD each at 30degrees vs. 12-15. (which isn't very bright elsewhere except directly from the rear)

LED advantage

Here are the LED advantages.
1. At least 40% more efficient (uses less current in a 12V system)
2. Long life (if driven properly should outlast the life of the vehicle)
3. Much faster responce than incandescents (not that big of a deal, just looks cool)
4. The colors are precise (not filtered through colored lenses)
It would be cool if somebody made a clear lens that could be used with LEDs

Disadvantage=price (for the good ones)

I work for a company that makes high powered LED lighting applications for police cars. The LEDs are quite different than the ones in this thread. Check it out.<ul><li><a href="http://www.911EP.com">http://www.911EP.com</a</li></ul>
