Catchy title,
Ok so I am starting on a major lighting project for the layout. I am going to be trying to use as many LEDs as Possible. I will be working on creating some night lighting as well as structural lighting. I noticed in the post “Loco Lighting Concerns" that there is a link to a 3mm yellow/white LEDs that I will use for housing lights. I am also looking at using Cree Blue Xlamps tm for full moon lighting for the layout.
I was just wondering if there are any pointers for LEDs before I start this project to a more full extent. If any one has used the Cree LEDs before for lighting please post about them. The white Xlamps from cree are super bright and I have thought about using some for lights on one of my engines.
