I'm having some trouble with a 0.5W UV LED that I ordered off ebay. This specific LED has 5 dies inside its lens, but the problem I'm having is that only 2 of the dies
are lighting up. The other 3 light up for about half a second when I connect the power, but not afterwards. I know that they haven't burnt out because they light up for that half second every time without fail. I thought it might be a lack of current, but the battery I'm using is capable of 14.5 amps and this LED supposedly only requires 100ma so I'm at a loss as to what the case may be.
Any help/ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Here is the listing:
1P High Power 0 5W 5 Chips 10mm UV Ultra UV LED Lights Lamps 40KMCD | eBay
Thanks all
