LEDs from Hong Kong

I got some LEDs from Hong Kong. Some of the LEDs I ordered were unavailable and I’ll get the rest later. What I got was two different types of white T10 base LEDs and two types of T10 amber LEDs.

Looks quite similar when compared to the ones ordered from SuperBrightLeds.

Amber LEDs – no surprises. They were amber. My intention is to use ’em as turn signal lamps.

The white LEDs were blue. My crude measurement from the pictures gave a color temperature between 6400 to 7000 kelvins, which is really blue. These leds would work really well with HIDs, but with normal natural white/white H4’s (at 3500 to 4000 kelvins) it will be a problem. Why are cops so attracted to blue light? They act like they own all the blue light in the world.

First white LED

Second one

The second LED looks violet in the picture. My first thought was UV light, but my lens has a UV filter on it. Strange.

Trying to compare the LED with the garage lights. Still violet.
