White surface mount LED's

Anyone got an idea where to pick up these? I was able to get red and amber but not white at Jaycar

What type of SMD leds?

There are a ton of different types. I pick mine usually from the bay (805, 1206 and PLCC leds). The quality is usually ok and they're cheap (don't trust the mcd-specs though.. these are usually far away from reality..).

Thinking 603 or ones with small side lead.

Ah.. I forgot to mention the 603. You can get them on the bay too.

I recently tried smd side leds. There are only few offers. These are tiny (slightly bigger than 603 leds though) yet very bright.

I didn't find leds of the 0402 type.. but these are almost microscopic.

Cheers
