I want to swap out the LEDs in my original model EternaLight. I want the brightest white LEDs, but ones that won't change the run time. How do I know which ones to get? I don't know which viewing angle is the best. I also don't know which wavelength is the best amongst the white or where the best place to buy them is. I would probably get a dozen to replace other 5mm LEDs if I need to. Any help is appreciated!

Actually what I would like is some Snow 29 LEDs just like the ones in my Peak Matterhorn. Anywhere I can buy some of these?

I just bought some Snow29's from Peak for $0.60 each. I added them to my order for a Pacific. I plan on upgrading my Eternalight EliteMax. I am a little worried about the current at the maximum setting, and the potential for shortening the LED's life.

However, I can easily replace them if they dim. Especially if I install sockets.
