TechAss MagmaLED question...

[PJD]

I can't seem to find the answer to this question anywhere on their site...Is this a Luxeon? Pardon my ignorance

, But I can't tell from their pictures!

Also...how bright is the MagmaLED compared to other single LED lights? Thanx in advance...

No, I don't think it is a luxeon star. It is some other type of led that does put the light in all direction like an ordinary bulb. So it really behave like the bulb it replaced in the minim@g. The difference is that the light it produces is a pleasant white rather the yellowish light from the other bulb.

Inretech said this--But as you can see from the picture - they are using a standard T1-3/4 (5mm) White LED; this package of LED is limited to approx 30-50ma of operation and approx 6.4c compared to the 226c of the Luxeon

I knew I had seen someone say it was a 5mm

PJD, it is a White Nichia LED that has been shaped, plus cicuitry. It allows use of the minimag (yes I will write the name) reflector for focusing. It cannot be used with Lithium AAs (extreme overheat of LED).
