| Best way to Diffuse light on an led? |
| (1/2) > >> |
| AmericanDemon:
I am trying to find a simple way to diffuse light on an LED. It will probably be a superbright led. Not sure of sizing yet. But I was curious as to what everyone else has tried.... |
| ChadTower:
Do you want to diffuse it or just dim it? If you want to dim it, give it less voltage. |
| Witchboard:
I'm going to have to diffuse a couple of LEDs on a project of mine and thought of sandblasting/sanding one side of a piece of plexi and put over it. The pieces I'm looking at will probably be around a nickle to quarter size. |
| RandyT:
Paint them with superglue and then sprinkle them with glass sandblast beads? I haven't tried it, but it sounds like it should work :) RandyT |
| Dire Radiant:
Sand the outside with 400 grit sandpaper. You can make it light more evenly by sanding the rounded end flat. A lot of PC case modders have used this technique to good effect. |
