Anybody here has used the super bright led's from superbrightleds.com (company
name: SUPER BRIGHT LEDS)? Are they reliable?
Are they, the company, reliable? Or are they, the LEDs, reliable? I
bought some red, green and yellow LEDs from this company a few months
ago, and I haven't conducted any reliability test on either. The
company shipped them to me, that's all I can say. The yellow LEDs
have some slight aberrations in the beam, but I suspect that it might
be from the shadows of the leads. Or else they're less than top
grade. I really haven't made any comparisons to other makes, mainly
because I don't have any other makes that are as bright.
As for white and blue LEDs, I buy all mine from Nichia, because I've
bought a few from others and it was obvious they weren't good quality.
So expect to "get what you pay for", i.e. if you get LEDs at
substantially less than market price, then expect them to be less than
top quality. And even if you pay market price, expect to get less
than top quality if you buy from other than a reputable source. One
local electronics store was charging five bucks for a white LED, and
I'd say it was _not_ what I expected.
