I think I found the 3-color leds that I have been looking for to match the RDDP blue/red/purple. It is a place in the UK, their site calculated shipping for me to the US but then they sent an email saying they canceled the sale, and returned the money since they do not ship out of the UK. Is there anyone that can act as a pick-up for these and then ship them out to me? I am not rich but would be willing to work out something for your time and of course cover all costs.

ultraleds have a piss-poor rep elsewhere. How many you want?

I was only wanting 10.

This is the ONLY place I have found these or I would have been happy to put my money elsewhere.

Eh..you know that's just a regular old blue/red LED right? Not too hard to find. It's purple when both the red and blue LED are powered on.

it is different then the normal style, if you get both the standard red/blue to light up in most red-blue leds it lights up half of each and really just shows up as half red, half blue(already tried). If you have seen the RDDP leds it is a strange color of purple but it is purple.

Not sure where you are at marko. They said unless I was willing to order in quantity they would not ship out of the country even to europe.

That's because the lens is frosted...take a normal LED and rough it up with some sand paper...frosted lens.

Post by **ttocs** » Wed Aug 05, 2009 9:37 pm

I sent an email but didn't get a responce. Maybe they don't even email out of the country?

Post by **ttocs** » Sat Aug 08, 2009 4:47 am

hey marko, I don't suppose you could ask them if they have any left or if they will ship to you?
