well i think it is obious that the new LED lights are a problem... but they dont have to be. FIRST used very cheap boards ( i couldent resist taking them apart ) and very low intensity leds. i asked if i could add in brighter ones, they said no. i think that the idea of EL wire or strip lights/leds is possable, but it would be almost inpossable to regulate them into a standerd, so i dont think first would do it. what would be quite feasable tho is a bank of leds, say 8 per light of each color, using high-intensity leds, say 3000 ml each. that and a modifyed rate-of-flash (maybe 2x per second @ 50% duty) would be much more effective, just as lightweight, and as hitech as the current lights.
