Optimusprime3605 Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 Anyone know where I can get some LED diodes for my Chinese black box, locally? Vancouver/PDX area, preferably in Vancouver. Yeah, I know, I could order online, but as most of us are, we'd like it now or tomorrow. Also, if anyone has any they are willing to sell, lmk pricing. Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Z Reef Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 How many do you need and what color? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jorge Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 I think I have a few cool white laying around. I could take them to the meet tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could take them to the meet tomorrow.Thanks to both of you for the offers. Unfortunately, after closer inspection of the individual LEDs, quite a few LEDs are burnt out. So, I'm thinking of just ordering new LED panels from SBreeflights. One for each unit... We'll see how it turns out. Thanks again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paratore Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 I'm thinking of ordering one of those pannels also! Such a good deal for $69 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wondering if they have some sort of discount for a "mini" bulk order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paratore Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 I only need one panel. And I have not placed my order yet. I doubt they do a "mini" bulk order. Maybe a bulk order of there are a bunch of people who need them? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SALTY Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 I am wanting to buy some led diodes for a diy led/t-5 hybrid fixture for my new tank. Where is a good place to buy them or if anyone has like 20 cool whites and 20 blues I could buy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milesmiles902 Posted March 18, 2016 Share Posted March 18, 2016 Jameco and Digikey are good websites to order electronic parts from. Jameco has the option of ordering LEDs one at a time, while Digi-Key is usually many per single order. On a quick search, they both had high-powered LED's in many colors.

TheClark Posted March 18, 2016 Share Posted March 18, 2016 I have an sb retro board, just ordered a second. So far so good! Easier than ordering a ton of diodes off of ebay from China. More expensive for sure, but easier. I gave in, no time for DIY these days... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you have to cut the black box like the video showed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheClark Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 Mine was a good fit no cutting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimusprime3605 Posted March 20, 2016 Author Share Posted March 20, 2016 I'm gonna have to cut mine. No biggie, I'm kinda handy. Sent from my SM-T350 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
