>> ====== i am making a pannel of 36 closely spaced jumbo red leds. (2500 mcd each) anyone got tips on how to attach them to a circuit board so that they point with parallel centerlines? say +/- 1 degree? >> Have you tried simply butting them tightly against the circuit board and soldering on the opposite side? I should think tolerances on the LED packages would be tight enough to do that and be within one degree, especially if there were no solder traces running under the LEDs. >> do any of the 6-led flashlights have 2 inch diameter optics? not to bright here,, yet. cu, bliven >> See http://www.ndsproducts.com/ledlite.html. It appears that both the 3-LED and 6-LED flashlights have the same 0.97-inch outside diameter lamp housing. The illustration of the lamps on the 3-LED flashlight appears to show jumpers where the other three LEDs would fit in the 6-LED flashlight.
