I want to build some lights using 415nm violet and 660nm red LEDs.
Here are some examples of commercial products:
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B001ELVD8C/?tag=cpf0b6-20
http://www.intelligentacnetreatment.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=LTO-001&Redirected=Y
As you can see, they range from expensive to outrageously expensive, and I doubt if they are even the wavelength they claim to be.
How would I go about making a light? What are some reliable sources for LEDs that are really 415 and 660?
These lights will be used on myself so I'll need a way to position them.
The only place I know of that may be trustworthy is http://www.roithner-laser.com/ as their 415nm led was measured as being truly 415 by LED Museum back in 2006 but I'm not sure if they are still the same quality.
