I am looking at creating a home made wireless lamps using LEDS.
I am debating using IC chips instead of regular LEDS as I think IC chips are brighter and draw less battery.
My questions are the following:
Is if possible to get warm white IC chips that have 10,000-20,000 MCD? I am planning on using 20 LEDS for this lamp.
If so, I am guessing I need to use a battery pack to ensure longer lifer, and am wondering if y'all have any suggestions?
Finally, I am worried about shadows and the angles on the IC chips I have been looking at are at most 60 degrees. I am thinking of creation a 10 sided plastic housing unit so I can disperse the light better and am curious if y'all have any better suggestions or ideas.
Thanks,
DanielJ
