LED musings.

I've decided I want a bunch of UV LEDs to build into my sculpture, and maybe some white ones, too. If I have some left over for Burning Man constructions, that'd be just fine with me... I'd like to order them next week, if possible. Anyone want to go in on a bulk order with me? They're generally cheaper the more you get. The cheapest ones I can find are at LEDsupply.com, and there's also superbrightleds.com, whose are more expensive, but brighter. I'm wanting to get at least 10-15 of them, probably more. LEDsupply also has things called "PowerPucks", which sound intriguing, especially for lighting a sculpture outside at Burning Man. Are they worth it? Are they that much better than plain batteries? Any thoughts from you kids who've done this more than me are appreciated.
