Surface Mount PLCC-2 SMT LEDs

All Customer Questions

Question

What does an LCD display look like with white LED's. I haven't seen one, maybe the white would be too bright? I have amber now in my quad and would like to change to white or blue.

Answer

We haven't seen one either.

Question

hey Oznium, are these ones waterproof? - by khoa (Fullerton, CA)

Answer

Sorry, These LED's are not waterproof.

Question

I am wanting to do led swap on my IS250 console and dash. Do you know if the PLCC-2 are what I need? - by Chipz (Denver)

Answer

Sorry, I don't know. Can you try looking on an IS specific forum or even opening up the gauge cluster and seeing what type of LEDs it uses?

Question

Is there a indicator stating which side is positive and negative - by Anthony (Imperial, MO)

Answer

Yes. Please click on "More Photos" and look at the indication of the "polarity mark".

The little cut out of one corner indicates the polarity.

Question

How can I get the multi-colored one in the display picture? What do you call that one? - by Bridget (Bronx, NY)

Answer

The picture you are referring to is one of my favorites. The combination was achieved by mixing red and blue.

Question

Could these be used in applications other than gauges? Would they be bright enough to do so? Such as in a door handle? Or Grocery Bag Holder, where space is limited? - by Michael (Warrensburg)

Answer

Yes, they'd work well for lots of applications, especially ones where space is limited.

If you're concerned about how to use them, though, consider using the Ribbon LED strips, which use the same surface-mount LEDs. Very bright!

Question

Will these work in 2000+ GM Vehicle gauges?

Answer

Unfortunately I am not familiar with all the different specifications of those cars. My best suggestion is to take your gauges apart and look around at the parts, or consult a message board dedicated to your type of vehicle.

Question

what would you reccomend in putting in the ash of a 1995 dodge ram 1500 it has bulbs under it and ow would i hook and LED up to that? - by Zach (Croswell, MI)

Answer

Your dash lights use a 158/161 size bulb. If you wish to replace these bulbs with LEDs, you'd have to find an LED bulb with similar dimensions or find spare 158/161 bulb bases and rig your own LEDs in them.

Question

Okay, I've pulled out the gauge cluster in my 2006 xB and this is the first I've seen of these...they are small!! My question is would these require additional or replacement resistors to the ones already on the circuit board?? I'm planning on getting 20 of the blue Surface Mount PLCC-2 SMT LEDs. Thanks - by Jimmy (Guam)

Answer

I would suggest you look on ScionLife as I am sure there are some write-ups or someone there can tell you.

Question

I am trying to put these in a 2000 subaru forester and it has bulbs in the dash. I was wondering what type of resistor or voltage regulator of some sort I would need to use to bring the 12v 7a power source down do be safe for the surface mount LED's? - by Russ (Maui, Hawaii)
