I figured it was a different forum..

Can not a DLP lamp be replaced with a LED light?

I was thinking that LEDs are brighter and they last a lot longer than the DLP lamps in the tvs. I was curious if anyone has taken the time to convert the DLP lamp to a LED lamp. I know that the power would be lower but isn't this possible to try out? Just a thought.

I bought this 8" bench grinder for grinding tool bits for my new lathe (which is super fragilistic expialidocious by the way)

I made the heatsinks for the led fluorescent lamps on my lathe.. these are just 2 left over ebay 3watt LEDs I had.. differing colour so I thought this would be a fine spot for them.. where it won't matter. Power to the original lights from the grinder was 12VAC, I put in a full bridge rectifier with some diodes and drove the led lights with an LM317 constant current mode, plus a 920uF cap to smooth the out the AC. You can see the LM317 and it's resistor under the heatsink that's mounted on top of the flexible led strip lighting socket... I did everything so it could be reversible should I need to return the grinder under warranty.

This is a general question I guess. My interest is in headlamps but it's a LED question so I think this is the best forum.

Which are more efficient in general...flexible led strip or whatever you want to call them such as Cree XP-G for example, or 5 mm LED's or SMT LED's? Is surface mount even a different category or are there XP-G's in surface mount?

It seems as used in headlamps anyway that led light bulb are much less efficient than power LED's. I'm not sure if this is across the board however (that's why I'm asking here). How do 5 mm LED's compare?

Is it just that led strip lights are able to produce more output or are they more efficient as well. Are 5mm LED's more efficient in their lower range? How do SMT LED's fit into all this?
