TORRANCE, CA — July 15, 2002 — LEDtronics® today announced the release of TestLED, an instrument that makes verifying individual
discrete LEDs fast, safe and easy. Now, without soldering wires or needing
a power supply, it's easy to determine if LEDs work. Simply insert the leads
into the ports located beneath the appropriate current (mA) then press the
button. It's that simple! If the LED lights, it's ok. If it doesn't, it's
no good. TestLED accommodates a total of 11 discrete LEDs and features six
different current ports: 2mA, 5mA, 10mA, 20mA, 30mA and 50mA. There are
three 20mA ports, four 10mA ports and one each for the remaining currents.
Three additional ports are configured for different combinations of anodes
and cathodes enabling the testing of tri-color LEDs. With a footprint roughly
the size of a garage door opener and powered by a 9V battery, this device
can be carried in the pocket of clean room smock, a toolbox or briefcase.
Users will find TestLED an indispensable tool for manufacturing lines, quality
assurance labs or inspection stations. Made of durable plastic, TestLED
is built to perform in the most strenuous manufacturing environments and
field conditions.
Founded in 1983, LEDtronics® leads where others only follow when it
comes to designing, manufacturing and packaging state-of-the-art LEDs to
meet the world's constantly changing lighting needs. Our inventive product
