Very ocassionally I come across clear LEDs with a
small coloured dot on the anode (+ve). Strangely,
these LEDs are made differently. You know when you
look through a LED the anode is much smaller than the
cathode ? These funny ones actually connect the other
way, with the large electrode to +ve, yet they look just
the same inside as any other LED. I've never seen them
on sale, the ones I have are envulturated from membrane
keyboards that come my way from time to time
