Miniature base LED lamps.

Optical-grade epoxy produces bright and evenly-dispersed illumination. Solid-state construction makes them ideal for applications subjected to vibration, shock and environmental stresses, which reduce the life of incandescent lamps. LEDs feature almost instantaneous turn-on and turn-off without transients and their low-current, high-efficiency operation delivers power savings of 80-90%. Intensity and wavelength remain stable over a 100,000 hour lifetime. These products feature built-in current-limiting resistors and polarity-protection diodes to assure that circuit modifications are not required. They are offered in a wide range of colors and all common indicator supply voltages. LEDtronics Inc, Torrance, CA.

Bright outdoor LEDs. SuperBright AllnGaP LED lamps yield superior clarity, efficiency, and a choice of wide or narrow view angles, making them ideal for demanding outdoor applications such as traffic signals and moving signs. Colors include several hues of orange, red, yellow, blue, green and white, in varying intensities from 3 to 5,000 MCD. These LEDs are available in a variety of mounting configurations.

Subminiature lamps. Incandescent lamps from 1.25 to 28 volts provide white light output up to 1.2 MSCP and up to 100,000 hours of life. A variety of standard or custom mounting options meets challenging design requirements. Gilway Technical Lamp, Woburn, MA. Free Info--Circle 664. http://www.OneRS.net/101df-664

MicroLens LCDs. This technology incorporates hundreds of thousands of miniature reflective surfaces in each LCD backlight. All variables of these surfaces are precisely controlled to very tight tolerances to extract light uniformly, consistently, and more efficiently than any other technology available today. These LCD backlights are typically chosen for their exceptional power and uniformity in LCD display applications for use in cell phones, PDAs and other small hand-held devices. Current development is focusing on lighting systems to improve visibility in minimally invasive, direct-view surgery. Global Lighting Technologies, Strongsville, OH.

Surface mount technology LEDs. Platypus LEDs' "duck feet" electrical contacts to make them surface mountable allowing designers to incorporate LEDs directly onto a circuit board without the short body profile and wide angle of light emission of radial-leaded LEDs.
