I smell special interest intervention here.. If I had a headlight with a significant number of LEDs in it, and I found out that I had to replace the whole thing because ONE blew, I'd be pissed. If you have 10 leds, then that's only 10% down if one fails, and even a slightly dirty headlight is down that much. -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
