I need two of these Ultra Thin Edgelight / Backlight LED Illuminators and the minimum purchase is $25, which would be six of those. Anyone know where I can buy just two of these things? I want the blue ones. http://www.netdisty.net/ds/rab362/
Unfortunately that's the only place I've ever seen them. They are a fairly rare item. I'm guessing you want two so you can blue light a DigiDoc? One solution though, is if you get enough small LEDs (let's assume the DigiDic case, alter depending on size you need) to fit ont he side, so I'd say about three 5mm LEDs, or maybe or maybe four or five 3mm LEDs, then mount them into a little board holder type thing, and then sand down the LEDs, as that gives a frosting on them and diffuses the light, which would give a more even lighting. Or mount them behind some diffusing plexi. You could always just get teh six of them, as I'm positive you;d be able find somewhere to put them. Maybe my suggestion can give you an idea or something.
Where in Missouri, east coast, west coast or other? I think group buy is the only answer here, people have been after those for a long time. Maybe you could organize some friends.
Yes I want to bluelight my DigiDoc5. I live in St. Charles by St. Louis so it is the very east edge of Missouri. A group order would be great.
Ah. You know about these guys then? http://www.superbrightleds.com/ (Not necessarily what you asked about, but in your backyard nonetheless). LEDtronics has a rep in St. Louis, maybe you could convince him to sell you a small order. http://www.led.net/pages/repsdists.htm I've talked to Barr-Thorpe, the minimum order still applies through them. But you could avoid shipping anyway.
