Hi,
So I'm in the process of making an LED string blade using around 80-90 LEDs
wired together.
The LED specifications are:
FV: 3.2~3.4V
FC: 20mA
mcd: 12,000-14,000
Viewing angle: 120-140 degrees
I'm using a 3.7V 5.3Ah Li-ion battery to power this, and am also using a
200ohm 2 watt resistor for the LEDs.
This is all well and good, except for the fact that the LEDs really aren't that bright.
After being put in the blade with a diffuser, I can barely see the light in a lit room.
Is there something I'm doing wrong with the setup? Are the LEDs the wrong kind? If the
LEDs are wrong, is there any you guys know of that would work better?
Thanks a bunch,
Jason
