One bulb. Looks more like a Cree emitter, rather
than a LED.

Huh? CREE make LEDS.

Hope the link comes through. Anyhow, the emitters
are differnt than the LED commonly in use.


Just brighter LEDs that's all, they're still light emitting diodes.


The URL calls it Cree, and the web page calls
it an emitter. That's how I got my choice of
name for the device.


Cree is a company. They make very bright LEDs.

His wife says "Why don't you put an advert in the paper?"
He does, but two weeks later the dog is still missing.
"What did you put in the paper?" his wife asks.
"Here boy" he replies.
