LEDS / BARE LEDS / WHITE LED BACKLIGHT MODULE - LARGE 45MM X 86MM
DESCRIPTION
These pretty strips of light are plastic diffused backlights, often seen in LCD displays. Normally
they're tucked behind the LCD and shine white light from below. Here, we've got the LEDs
available individually and they're really cool! Each LED is encased in a 3.5mm thick strip of a
acrylic. The acrylic strip is a special type that is very good at diffusing light, so even though there
is only one single white LED, it provides near-uniform lighting. The other flat side of the strip has
a reflector on it so you only get light from the top (otherwise the backlight would lose 1/2 the
brightness unnecessarily).
You can treat this backlight just like an LED, light with ~3V at 20mA current and you get a pretty
shape that you can mask with vinyl or draw over with marker. Gels can be used to change the
color. We think these would make great wearables without the need for EL or inverters, they're
much brighter than EL and use less battery. The trade-off is these are not flexible at all.
