ahh, predator that might explain why mine have been lasting this time.
i'm a big fan of leds, they use miniscule amounts of current. and if you ever see a side-by-side between electroluminescent (indiglo), incandescent (regular), & led the leds will always have the most saturated color (led blue is *way* blue-er than indiglo). |
