Re: Blinkenlights
"The blue ones are so bright!"
Effective LED brightness can differ considerably between types. I used a traffic light sequence this week of 1.8mm LEDs. The greens with the clear packaging were very bright from all angles - whereas the green ones with a diffused coloured package were very dim. However - the diffused red and amber were more effective than the clear package ones. The latter were actually very bright - but with almost no off-centre diffusion.
While red/green is the common colour blindness - some people can have blue/yellow problems instead.
