Thread: Tri-Color LEDs and MHS Emitters???

  1. #1

    Default Tri-Color LEDs and MHS Emitters???

    For my lightsaber project, I want the blade to be yellow. Now I know there is a color filter sold in the store but I also know that filters can create a dimmer blade. So I want to try and use a tri-color LED and use the blue and green dies to create a pure yellow glow. My question is, will that work inside a MHS emitter? If I use a tri-color LED, will I be able to use an
    TCSS lens to project the light? Has anyone tried this plan and had success? If anyone can help me with this I would really appreciate it. Thanks everybody!

    You sound like you want a ledengin 10w amber led. Search the forums for info on those.

    Or use a white led with a filter.

    Or use a rgb, rgba, rgbw, ect.

    Blue and green do not make yellow. That would be green and red.

    Wow I can't believe I didn't realize that mistake. I'm not going to lie, that was kind of stupid of me.
