Synth Light Sources

2003-10-21 by mbedtom@aol.com

Recently I did some work for Federal Signal, makers of emergency vehicle 
signaling products.  While musing with some of their emergency products engineers 
I got to play with some Luxeon LEDs I had read about some time ago.  Arrays of 
Luxeon LEDs are used on police and other emergency vehicles as strobe light 
replacements.  The only complaint against them is that they are too bright at 
night!  Luxeon LEDs are amazing and available in most of the cool colors 
including red, white, blue, green, etc.

To light up a synth with low power and quiet DC-only voltage, I suggest 
looking into Luxeons.  Go to www.theledlight.com to look around.  They carry the 
whole range of Luxeons as well as many other LED lighting options.  They seem to 
have all things photonic.  Cool stuff.

Cheers!
