@jpm they’re so cheap!
@madkiwi that’s… about how much LEDs normally cost? That’s also why they have minimum order quantities on their ultra-cheap passives and semiconductors.
@jpm I can’t say I’ve never purchased any in quality, mostly I’ve purchased from mouser or digikey. I’ve only recently bought items from lcsc
@madkiwi oh yeah, for basic passives and semiconductors, Mouser and Digikey are absolute rip-offs. There are some parts that are cheaper from those two than LCSC though, however occasionally LCSC supplies counterfeit or recycled components.
@jpm This is a dangerous site.
Thank you. And damn you. 😅
@joshuaelliott it is, but beware they have issues with counterfeits and recycled parts in their stock occasionally.
@jpm all I need now is a 1996 Honda Civic, a five stacker CD player, five Skitz Mix CDs, and I’ll meet @thewetmale at Stanmore McDonald’s
@liamvhogan @jpm @thewetmale nothing good ever happens there at 3am
@liamvhogan @jpm @thewetmale although I can imagine that loud saxophone then would annoy a lot of the nimbies who live in the housing nearby.. which is always a good thing
@stufromoz @jpm @thewetmale there will be no analogue instruments of any sort coming from the washing-machine sized subwoofers in the boot. Only oontz and tish
@ThermiteBeGiants @minga yep drop me your postal address in Signal, they can go in a letter.
@jpm that is a lot
@stufromoz Not really, when you buy that many at once they're like $0.005 each.
@jpm I meant a lot of LEDs
@stufromoz yes, and they’re purple
(also, it’s very cute that this company's LED datasheets plot the relative spectrum and other graphs in the actual output colours)
@jpm I have no use for them or capability to use them. So in practical terms No. In irrational “oooh shiny” terms Yes.
@abstractcode They're 0805 size so easy enough to solder manually
@jpm I have no use case for them. And too many projects in progress already.
@abstractcode I’ll send you 100 then.
