Review on πŸ”΄ High-Quality eBoot Assorted Emitting Diodes for All Your Electronic Projects by Flavio Iyer

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Very short life at 20mA

I used these as directed 20 mA in a microscope illumination. I noticed that after a while the illuminator wasn't as bright as I thought it would be, but maybe it's just my memory. I used two power supplies to power a 10mA LED and a 20mA LED. After only 5 days of continuous lighting, the 20mA LED was significantly less bright than the 10mA LED. I suppose I should repeat this test at 5mA, but the bottom line is if you want them to last long don't run them at 20mA. Keep it at 10 milliamps or less.

Pros
  • 5mm LED panel: contains 100 LEDs in 10 colors (Yellow, Orange, Emerald Green, Blue, White, Red, Green, Warm White, Purple and Color Flash)
Cons
  • Not sure
