RatShack#90-8700
water clear RED 5.0mm LED
4000mcd brightness
22deg
$0.29
out of stock at the time of my writing

I bought 36 of them for $0.23ea in october. Try adding larger quantities in your cart. Online Discounts seem to be in quantities of 10, then 50, then 100. Haven't tried anything higher than that.

review:
These LEDs aren't the brightest reds available, but for the price/light output, they were a good deal. Beats paying $1 for one or two in the store. They put out a mostly red with a hint of orange light. I lit up 12 of them on my proto board and color seemed very consistent. I've been using one in my $2.99 2AA aluminum flashlight from autozone. I took the reflector out of the light, because output looks much better without it. With over 20 hours on the original batteries it puts out plenty of light to read by, but is more orange than with fresh batteries (no, I am not using a current limmiting resistor.) Led is much better suited for reading if you grind the epoxy case down close to the emitter. Provides nice wide illumination (like the LS without optics) without blinding you.

There, i started the trend, feel free to share any deals you have found or find.

Re: Good deals on LED\'s

I have been looking for some good deals. I bought some HP HLMP-CW15 1.2CD Whites at www.newark.com for $1.36 (NEWARKPN: 48F6026). If you order lots then goto Future, they handle 100+ orders and the LED price goes down to 0.99.

There is someone selling the Hot Nichia White NSPW500BS one ebay for just a tad over the 100 piece price direct from Nichia. He wants $2.40 each and $1.00 shipping in the US. (search for Nichia)

Nichia web site just went online ordering. It used to just have info, but, now you can order direct via the web at their website.
Nichia

I've ordered some LED's from Hosfelt. You have to careful. Some are priced good while others you can get for less somewhere else.

You can check LED Museum
He does some great reviews of LED's and where to get them.
