Why are those fuckers so fucking bright.
i agre
We can't have white LEDs without blue ones
You have to understand wavelengths, blue requires high frequency to be produced within the visible light spectrum, which of course makes the energy coming off the color more intense

>white
That's racists though
>>60561149
if you want a black LED just turn it off nigga
>>60561073
Why?
>>60561314
There are no white LEDs that are born white.
>>60561147
energy, intensity and brightness are completely separate.
>>60561224
>black LED is a LED that doesn't work
wow, racist af
>>60561147
wtf are you talking about? Blue is on the lower end of the spec
Just swap it for a red one, family
To make drivers crash into objects when pulling up to a DUI check point at night.

Bait?
>>60561377
Are you trolling or do you seriously don't know the difference between wavelength and frequency?
Red is easier on the eyes, but looks too edgy.
I use white leds to showcase my guts
I'd maybe try green, but Razor ruined that opportunity.

That's awesome. Might do it to mine.
>>60561419
shit Im thinking Im baited at this point or this >>60561427
Googling it up now.
>>60561377
the lower the wavelength the higher the frequency/energy.

Cool, got it now.
ITT: /g/ gets baited or confused over v=fλ and E=hf which features in science classes in school.

Thank you!

>75c for a single LED
why would ever buy anything from adafruit
>>60561314
White LEDs are just blue LEDs with a phosphor mixture on them. It absorbs some of the blue light and fluoresces at other wavelengths, creating white.
It's kinda like how ordinary fluorescent tubes actually emit nothing but hard UV, they just paint things on them that glow in other colors when UV light hits them
>>60561676
Wow nice
>>60561665
BECAUSE ITS SUPER BRIGHT
>>60561820
How would you tell?
>>60561987
I JUST DID
>>60561053
i just bought tint tape and put it over the exterior leds on my case. much easier on the eyes now
>>60561053
Blue LEDs are botnet, meme and CIA nigger.

you just think they're blue
