These are NSHU590A. Not sure of the difference, but six bucks is a great price! Would you mind sharing the source?

Saw this Nichia on eBay and was curious about the price. Do they retail for near $30 as claimed? If so, I may bid on it and do the UV mod I've been wanting. If link doesn't work, here is item number 7534748707

Does anyone know of good sources for UVs other than ETG?

Thanks

Wow -- that is expensive. They should be $6 for the 365nm ones and $5 or so for the 375nm ones.

ETG is where to get the xLamps from -- they are _very_ cool.

Probably would bake a scorpion in his shell!

I have contacted six companies regarding UV LEDs and only recieved ONE reply. Ironicly, that one response was to let me know they no longer carried UV LEDs! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/icon23.gif

If any of you have a few decent UVs to spare, please let me know. PayPal is locked and loaded!
