I searched the forum for LED Sources and I found old posts. I was hoping to get some good fresh sources for LEDs specifically for edge lit projects that we have seen in recent posts here.

My thanks in advance,

Oh that is a good one. Who don't like remote controlled color and brightness? Thanks. Anyone else got a good one?

If you're looking for LEDs for projects outside of edge lighting such as lettering and cabinets I can help you. We sell a few top quality constant current LEDs available in whites and colors in mid range .72 watt and below (NC LED) Korean. The other is a High Powered LED who's diodes are Nichia of Japan is is a single Module that can be used as a .5 watt module supplied at 12v volts or boost the same module to 14.7 volts as a 2 watt module, which is this LEDs optimum voltage & current rating that is NOT overdriving. When you talk about LEDs in the LED World, everyone in the LED industry knows the high quality, brightness and performance of Nichia of Japan.

Both LED lines have been in our testing made available to anyone on the electric sign industry since 2008 where we test just about every LED on the market along with Neon

We just started selling LEDs to add to our Neon component sales just a few weeks ago and haven't even advertised it widely yet. These LEDs have performed so well in our testing for such a longtime we're VERY confident and proud to offering them. Their a lot less expensive than the usual big name LED companies, perform better and degrade less overtime.

That's great I will keep that in mind as well.

Just don't go replacing all that magnificent neon with LEDs. I think they both have their place. But great neon is true art!!

I'm not a believer in retrofits. Both Neon & LEDs have their strengths and weaknesses, i.e. red neon does not degrade in light overtime whereas LEDs do etc. Neon kicks ass!
