Hello,
I need to first confirm that LED lights, the inexpensive kind often found in blinking toys are not all that fragile should they have impacts. I know that incandescent light bulbs used in cars still work fine after a high speed accident and those lights are being replaced by LED bulbs now. Is there a rating spec on LEDs to find out about this, I need them to repeatedly survive at least 50 Gs (which isn't that much really). Second, where can I find them?
Also, do most battery operated (6v) hand held devices like flashlights, portable radios/players etc. need to get UL approval or is UL for higher voltage appliance type products?
Thanks.
