    Involvement:General (knows how to use it) - Ownership:more than 1 month

    Excellent LED! This little monster is surprisingly bright, just be ready to provide it with the juice it needs to run. The color is crisp and clear.

    Involvement:Expert (understands the inner workings) - Ownership:1 week to 1 month

    Cons:
    Common anode, not cathode (incorrectly labeled)
