What is the best type of LED to use with the MiniPOV3? And, do you have a Mouser catalogue number? Thanks,
Tom

Re: LED
When I ordered, the kit came with clear LEDs, but I think many people prefer diffused, so something like this would be great:

Re: LED
This particular LED only emits a light intensity of about 50mcd. Ladyada was recommending about 400mcd. What do you think? Thanks,
Tom

Re: LED
Sure, you could go higher if you want. It'll be brighter, but if you don't get a diffused kind, then you will only be able to see it at that brightness looking straight on.
