Description: So much power and light from such a small package. This 5 pack of blue 3 Watt aluminum backed PCBs is sure to shed a lot of light on any project you add it to. These LEDs act as any other LED except these little guys require much more power while delivering a light as intense of a thousand suns going super nova (this is an exaggeration but you know what we mean)!
Each LED in the pack sits upon an aluminum backed PCB to help with heat dissipation and emits a deep blue light. Additionally, each LED requires a forward voltage of 3.2-3.8V at 750mA.
Note: We like to joke around about super novas and all, but seriously, don’t look directly into the LED.
Features:
- Forward Voltage: 3.2-3.8V
- Forward Current: 750mA
- Viewing angle: 125±5 Degrees
- Luminous Intensity: 30-60LM
- Wavelength: 460-470nm

I had a blast doing thing with the green luxeon rebel LEDs, how do these compare?
I had hard time soldering these. Any hints for the future? I found I had to apply a lot more flux than in the past. My temp was 750 F. I was using flux core solder about .032".
Hey! wait a minute, if the Rebel LEDs were like five bucks just for the LED, and these are eight bucks for 5 LEDs and carrier boards, I’d really love to know how they compare?
…I didn’t really want my retinas anyway.
