Not sure how much these pics will help

This is the only led I bought from maplin (cost $5!!) but link here - http://www.maplin.co.uk/products/detail ... PONENTS%3A

recently realised that I'd been giving all the LED's above 3.3V instead of 4V - fixed the problem, tho didn't make a lot of diff

Can hardly see now... 10000mcd is very very bright.
