3mm Bright Blue LED – 455-465nm Clear Transparent (10/25/50/100 Pack)

📋 Overview

These 3mm Blue (455–465nm) LEDs put out a crisp, bright 4,500–5,500 mcd through a clear transparent lens — perfect for indicators, flashlights, decorative lighting, and status displays. With a wide 30° viewing angle and standard 20mA drive current, they're an easy drop-in upgrade for any breadboard or through-hole PCB project, whether you're just getting started with electronics or building out a full production run.

💡 Tips

Always use a current-limiting resistor with this LED — running it directly off a battery or supply voltage above 3.2V without one can burn it out almost instantly. For a typical 5V supply, a 100–150Ω resistor works well at 20mA.

Want to skip the resistor math entirely? Check out our 20mA LED Driver. It eliminates the need for current-limiting resistors and lets you drive a single LED or a series string of LEDs at various drive voltages.
