LEDs, Electronics Components and Circuits

NOTE: You may have arrived here from one of my other model railroading websites. This is not an accident; I've consolidated reference information here so that I'm not maintaining multiple resources with the same information across multiple sites.

Just LEDs

  • E-LED — LEDs of all kinds
  • Kingbright USA — an LED manufacturer that also sells directly; particularly good assortment of SMD LEDs; highly recommended
  • LEDTronics — wide array of LEDs of all types, but since the focus is industrial lighting, they also have things like 1:1 streetlights and stoplights
  • Oznium — Unique LED strips and lighting kits
  • TheLEDlight — a range of LED products geared mostly for home lighting, but they also have some interesting products such as LED ribbons

LEDs, Effects Electronic Circuits & Kits

  • E-Clec-Tech — a surplus house with a focus on robotics gadgetry; some unusual items to be found there
  • Cir-Kit Concepts — ultra-small micro-bulbs and simple circuit kits
  • Bakatronics — special effects lighting circuits plus many electronics hobby kits
  • Miniatronics — pricey lighting effects and electronics
  • Ngineering — good assortment of SMD LEDs, but in particular they have an outstanding array of their own custom-manufactured electronic circuits for creating special lighting effects; highly recommended
  • Ram Traxx — digital sound, lighting electronics
  • TrainAidsA — awkward name for a great source of prewired LED strips and modeling accessories

Electronic Components

  • All Electronics — an electronics surplus house with an extensive and variable catalog of merchandise
  • Digi-Key — a huge distributor of electronics merchandise to the industry, so their product range is mind-boggling; you basically need to know what you want before you order, because their catalog is not something you can browse; highly recommended
  • The Electronics Goldmine — surplus electronics and widget retailer, thus their stock of LEDs and such will change over time, but you can find some great deals there
  • Mouser — a huge distributor of electronics merchandise to the industry; see the notes for Digi-Key
