White LED Backlight Module - Large 45mm x 86mm

White LED Backlight Module Large 45mm x 86mm These pretty strips of light are plastic diffused backlights often seen in LCD displays Normally theyre tucked behind the LCD and shine white light from below Here weve got the LEDs available individually and theyre really cool Each LED is encased in a 35mm thick strip of a acrylic The acrylic strip is a special type that is very good at diffusing light so even though there is only one single white LED it provides nearuniform lighting The other flat side of the strip has a reflector on it so you only get light from the top otherwise the backlight would lose 12 the brightness unnecessarily You can treat this backlight just like an LED light with 3V at 20mA current and you get a pretty shape that you can mask with vinyl or draw over with marker Gels can be used to change the color We think these would make great wearable electronics without the need for EL or inverters theyre much brighter than EL and use less battery The tradeoff is these are not flexible at all This particular backlight has a 45mm x 86mm lit area
