Did those LEDs come in an array like that when you bought them? Any chance of manufacturing some, or maybe a writeup? They look great by the way.

Maybe I can get kzoosho to make some LED tails if you're not interested in manufacturing. Are you still doing those kzoo?

If not, I may be able to make my own set, assuming you can buy the LEDs already laid out like that. I'm no electronics expert, but I learned how to solder back in junior year of high school.

they didn't come in the array, if you look at the original posts i've got a pic of how i soldered each individual leg (each LED has 2 anode legs and 2 cathode legs) then did the connections by soldering wire between each. i may make some more, but will have to finish them beforehand.

i don't know if brian (kzoosho) is making any more, but i'd ask for any discussion of sales etc please don't post here, this is a project thread not a for sale, so i don't want to get it locked/hijacked.

Ah, the reason I thought they came as an array on those boards was because they look so clean and manufactured.

What reflector material did you use in between the LEDs?
