I am looking at this LED right now:
Luxeon III Emitter LED - Red-Orange Lambertian, 190 lm @ 1400mA [LXHL-PH09]
I am guessing its a 3w LED, which by the way... LED ratings and brightness details have all eluded me!
This one says its 190 lumens. Well, just how much light is that? What can it be "compared to" so I can figure out if it is bright enough?
The object is, I am building some road side warning lights. The red-orange color should be a good color. The pattern appears to be on target, I want it to be seen not just from the rear but from off-angles too. But I want it to be BRIGHT!
What LEDs are they using in emergency vehicle lightbars? They are amazing bright, Id only want about 4 LEDs on each side, in a 2X2 gang I would reckon would be good.
There are SO MANY resellers on the net of LEDs, and I have no clue how to determine which one(s) will suit my needs/wants.
Thanks-
Andrew
