Subject: RE: [Homebrew_PCBs] Aluminium base pcb

Hi,

Have no idea if what you ask is possible. Have you considered using a common
FR4 copper PCB with common Al/Cu heat sinks bolted/screwed on the sides of
the led with some thermal paste? Much cheaper...

Usually, high power LED's came assembled in a heat dissipating base ready
for heat sinks
