    Involvement:Expert (understands the inner workings) - Ownership:more than 1 month

    Pros:
    Very bright, worked at (I tested between 1.8v and 5 using a 220ohm resistor). Not a single one failed me. I used it for testing my micro controller outputs.
    Cons:
    None really. They come piled in a little plastic baggie, so the leads may be a little bent, but there is no problem

    Good buy

    posted by Konan89 on 03/05/2013 Certified Owner

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

    Pros:
    Comes packed separately. Also the legs are very good and solder easily, the intensity is OK. I use them at about 20 mA and they don't burn or die fast.
    Cons:
    None really. They come piled in a little plastic baggie, so the leads may be a little bent, but there is no problem.

    Red Led

    posted by thegianny on 01/25/2013 Certified Owner

    Involvement:General (knows how to use it) - Ownership:1 day to 1 week

    Pros:
    Very very bright, very very cheap, comes in a very good package that protect it against impact. All the 10 arrived and were working. They came with a inner package also, that is good for keeping them separated from others in you stock.
    Cons:
    None i can think of. They are well put, cheap and fast shipped. You can not ask for more than that.
