I did check the Litchfield web site and at .50/ LED I find that a little high. I'm looking for a direct electronics supplier company. Somewhere I can get 100 count bags of LEDs.

Locating LED Headlights

I recently installed a yellow glow LED as a headlight in my Atlas RS-1. I love the effect it provides as a headlight. I plan on installing them as both headlights and backup lights and seeing I have over 30 engines this could be a considerable cost if I use the Minitronics packages. Does anyone know of a source for LEDs that match the Minitronics models that I could buy direct from? I have an ample supply of resistors, I just need the LEDs.
Part numbers or spec for the LED would be greatly appreciated as I am not an electronics engineer and could never look at a spec sheet and pick the right type of LED for our use (or as a substitute for the Minitronics LEDs).
