Since we’re on the subject of LED illumination sources, I’m trying to build a blue led illumination source for two purposes, one for a gfp stereo microscope and the other is to illuminate channelrhodopsin-2 protein.  I have a paper that details a fairly easy circuit, etc, but I can’t find a commercial source for the LED.  Specifically I’m looking for the CREE Xlamp XR-E blue led (465-485).  I can find the parent company and several “distributors” but damned if I can find one that will let me enter an order.

Any help is appreciated.
