Mail from AD
If LED flashes at 5-10 K Hz at even 50% Duty Cycle. It may save some power and improve life. So it is just an idea, it may not solve the problem. The idea was to improve battery life and give uniform light for annunciators. It may not be good for flashlights.
LEDs and OLEDs
Small lights with big potential: light emitting diodes & organic light emitting diodes.
