Quite sure. I also found one at RS this weekend that is rated at
1.3 V.


I'd like to know who makes it and what the chemistry is. Standard
white LEDs are blue and use a phosphor to convert it to white light. I
have data sheets on over 100 different types of white LEDs and none are
under 3 volts.




Clearly you don't believe me. So the back and forth isn't getting
either of us anywhere.

Look up LED's at Parts Express. You'll find all of them are 2.2
and under.

Go to RS and look in the drawers. But if you think you're going
to get anyone there to give you a manufacturer's name, you're going
to be disappointed.

Likewise the grab boxes at a hamfest.

I have no doubt that your data supports your position. The only
logical conclusion to be drawn is that either your data is
incomplete, or the LED's sold by Parts Express, RS, or the hamfest
vendor don't exist.

That would make my 3000-1 T/O something of an oddity, and I
supposed I should be making a posting on eBay right away. Certainly
would go a long way toward that estate in the Yukon I've been
dreaming about.

Have a good weekend, Michael.
