The LEDs I use has a lot to do with it. I use 10mm 140,000mcd bright white LEDs. Then I smooth out the power with a custom made DC to DC converter. I also include a dimmer.

"tagen" I looked at your lights,, your lights them self does not have enough lights and you didn't include a reflector.. once my lights are cast I use a mirror type paint to make a reflector,, Also you have to make the LED bank kinda concaved,, the LEDs can't be in a straight line like you have them,, My LEDs are touching each other too,, the clear resin also helps to bring out and focus more of the light...

I understand what you guys are saying cause I already went through the R&D Phases. LEDs do work if done right.

Oh as far as my site being from TX,, Think about it,, coastaloutfitter.com if you live by the coast then your part of my target places. Also I used to live in Pensacola,,,, I wish I could come back.... I'll soon be hosting shops like my own pages for

people to sell hand build fishing gear.. I'll have pics up by the end of the weekend of the LED lights and more gigs shapes...
