Blinding
Newly Enlightened
My brother-in-law mailed me some LEDs including an OVTL09LGAW (white).

This is a surface mount package about 1 inch square containing 9 LEDs. I cobbled together something
to drive it at about 0.27 amps at just under 9 volts, about 1/3 of its rating.
Now that my vision had returned I can state that this thing is very bright. I will figure out something to drive it at full power later and wear sun glasses when I do.
It is a very wide angle light, 120 degrees. There is no spot. My son thinks it would make a great head lamp. That or a lantern.
