Surface mount leds
Posted by NSDash09 on Wednesday, July 25, 2012 7:59 AM

Does anyone have a part number for the Richmond controls leds that are really small? I need some for HO Details West ditchlight housings and I was hoping for ones small enough that I could mount some on the stairs and above the trucks as safety lights? Walthers had some 2mm by 3mm leds, I don't know if they get any smaller than that. Ngineering seems to have some very small leds too; I don't know if anyone has some experience with their products or not.

Jim, at Richmond should be able to help you.

Give him a call. They have what is called a 603 Surface mount LED with wires attached.

There is a smaller LED called a 402.

Try here for the 402 : http://www.railflyermodel.com/
