No hype: Truly a 360 degree LED!
I'm an electrical engineer and I have a lot of experience with LEDs, so I was very skeptical of any LED that boasts of having an omnidirectional beam pattern, especially with any significant brightness. For less than $2, I was certainly willing to try out a couple of them. I was truly amazed! This LED is the closest thing I've found to the light of an incandescent light bulb, except with a cooler white color temperature. I have used this LED in several portable lantern and night light modifications with great results. The light is brighter and the batteries last many times longer. It runs cool without heatsinking at 50mA, but also works well and looks good at lower currents. I would love to see a warm white variety of this LED offered too.
