Is the MJ LED bright due to the large phospherous(sp) area or the cut down head of the LED? I have two that are really green but I did find one that was pretty white in color. I am assuming LED lottery, but thought the large surface area would provide adequate brightness without the green. I poofed one of the green ones when I tried out a Li-ion cell on it. It was really nice while it lasted. Maybe all of 1minute.

The LED is bright because of the large die and the high current. The LED is just an ISP 100-mA LED, cut down, supposedly. Cutting it down just changes the beam pattern so that it works better with a reflector. My MJLEDs were fairly white; a bit blue.
