Apart from cleaning my TV remote control (see other thread) I would like to put in a more powerful infrared LED
The remote control is about 10 to 15 years old. The spec is below. Note that I am in the UK.
I would guess I can get an LED nowadays which draws the same power as the orignal LED but with a noticeably better light output.
Q. What is the spec of the infrared LED I need to get? Here is one LED I came across. Is it ok?
Q. Maybe I can put in a LED which actually draws a bit more power than the original one?
Q. Is the way to do it to put two LEDS in parallel?
COuld anyone kindly advise me. Thanks.
