Hey, I need an expert opinion. I'm building a boat light using red and green LEDs, both 14,000 mcd/20 degree field of illumination. I was thinking that to keep the moisture out, etc., I'd just cast the LEDs in a ball of clear resin. Two issues:
1) The resin gives off heat during the casting process--about 150 degrees. Would this be enough to damage the LEDs?
2) Will the LEDs overheat (assuming I'm not overdriving them or anything).
Thanks for any opinions. Great site, BTW.
