the lights that some ppl put in their vents to make light come out of them.....what exactly r they called? and which brand is the best quality? ive been trying to search for them but i cant find

 

They are LED's...I don't know what brand is the best or if there is a best brand cause most LED's are the same quality.

 

next time you see a guy with one of those pull him over and ask. hehe that would be the easy way

 

lol, it would b, but in manhattan there arent many ppl with hook ups

 

what does LED stand for if they do stand for somethin?

 

um um um um, can anybody gimme a direct link cause im getting some crazy search results, lol.... thanx

 

Light emitting diode.

 

LED is acronym for Light Emitting Diode. It’s pretty much a p-n junction in forward-bias, typically made of aluminum-gallium-arsenide (AlGaAs). Check out a good classic semiconductor physics book like Physics of Semiconductor Devices by Simon M. Sze. Must have if you’re into semiconductor physics.

 

You can em at RadioShack?.... Circuit City?.. Any carshop that gots lights...

 

radio shack is where i got mine!

 

gotta go with everyone else and say radio shack

 

you can also get yourself a set of VARAD led's which has the resistor already configured to the LED, and you can get these from ebay...or if you know how to wire up the led's on your own, then radio shack would be the place to go, since they are cheaper there with seperate resistors

 

another option is street glows headlight neons. its a small tube, diameter of a pencil, and about 1 inch long. get 2 in a pack

 

headlight neons?! and they'll still work through the vents?
