I have bought several LED flashlight modifications, and I like them all, however a question cropped up into my mind.
I know that there are ways to make to make normal diodes emit to the sides by grinding the epoxy in a certain way. This is done to let the LED use the flashlights reflector.
My question is: what is the best method to make LED's emit sideways? Is there anyway somebody at home could make the mod? Is there any way to make 100% of the LED's light go sideways to reflect off the reflector? I would want this so that a very tight beam can be made from a flashlight. Thanks
