Where to find a green ring light

[abigailthefox]

This year, our team is doing vision processing, but we seem to have lost our green LED ring light. I have checked Andymark and Amazon for a suitable replacement, but I haven't found anything. Does anyone have any recommendations for where to look/recommendations based on what they have used?

You should be able to find something suitable on www.superbrightleds.com. I know my team has gotten stuff there before.

SuperBrightLEDs.com is a great place for these, and is in fact where the KoP light is from. The exact one from this year's FIRST Choice is here: https://www.superbrightleds.com/more...ent-lights/49/ (it's 60mm diameter)

SuperBrightLEDs is now sold out.

Any other suggestions?

Even though the specific model that FIRST stocks is out, there's many other to choose from. For only a few dollars more, you can get the black PCB version with more LEDs and higher brightness. There's also other to choose from at even higher brightness.

Just an FYI about brightness - more brightness isn't necessarily better. As soon as you saturate the colour of light that your LED is, adding more brightness will actually hurt your vision (no pun intended ). 254's talk from champs this year covered this, as well as a bunch of other useful stuff.

Last year we ran with a single green LED, FWIW.

That being said, the advice to look at other models of LEDs and LED rings from superbrightleds is still good.
