LED's
Bart or anybody else... can you tell me what the MCD intensity means...http://www.radioshack.com/product/in...entPage=family
|
im not that sure, but i think its the brightness
|
yes it is the brightness. MCD means millicandella, and candella is a measure of lights intensity. I dont know the math on this one but the higher the mcd the brighter the light basically.
|
hey i found this website what do you think... http://www.superbrightleds.com/leds.htm
and could you use ultraviolet??? would it help at all |

uv is like black light... and does the viewing angle matter?
|
I dont know much about the viewing angle (although i assume some led's are meant for broad range and some are focused like a spotlight)
|
30 degrees isn't too small but i think those led's would be bright enough and they are really cheap... $.87 each
|
30 degrees is like a floodlight, not sure what you want them for but they would make pretty good headlights i think. I imagine that the lower the degree the more intense the beam.
|
i want to make a custom light bar for my hummer... and just to help people out on the forum who need LED's...
|
do some more research and put something together (in your words...i like that) and I'll stick it to the top.
|
if you mounted an LED with a 90 degree viewing angle would that go across the whole front of the car... im kinda confused on the viewing angles once mounted...
|
I think it means the optimal angle in which the light would be projected. so a 90 would spread light off of both sides and the front equally instead of concentrating it out the front as a 30 or less would do. I am just assuming here so dont take my word for it.

$.87 is not cheap i should know my brother is the owner of Auto X Systems a digital lighting co.http://www.com/ so i get all of my leds and electronics for free. he gets then really cheap.

free is cheaper than anything...but $.87 is better than 4 or 5 on ebay or radioshack
|
yeah but $.87 is still to much. you could get them cheaper on ebay
