High Power IR LED's and Ultrabright LED's

I'm looking for some IR LED's, right now most I can find don't exceed 40mW/sr, although I have found one at 80mW/sr.

I read that most remotes get 100mW/sr, and was looking for ones in the range of 100mW/sr - 500mW/sr

Has anyone had any luck looking for these?

Additionaly, if anyone knows where to buy ultrabright LEDs, in excess of 10000mcd, I would appreciate the lead.

Thanks!

www.superbrightleds.com has white, red, green, and yellow LEDs >= 10000mcd. I have never purchased from them nor know anybody that has (anyone here???).

Have a look at that site:

Hi Gandledorf,

Vishay TSAL6100s are cheap (0.21 USD at Mouser) and can do 1000mW/sr @ 1A
with a 100uS fractional duty cycle. Bright enough?
