Title: Looking for Aqua/Teal 1.8mm LED
Post by: dead_pixel_design on Tue, 31 January 2017, 13:12:31: I am not having any luck online finding an aqua or teal colored LED at a 1.8mm profile and am hoping someone here might know where I could find some???

Thanks, that is super helpful!! The Cyan definitely is on the green side, I think that will work for my build though! *fingers crossed*
