Essentially a LED is a small lightbulb that is built to last for long periods of time. The color does not come from the color of the casing itself. Instead, depending on the wavelength produced, the LED can produce a different color. However, often times the casing color matches the color of the diode. Red is the most common color LED, but blue and green are also often used. By using all three together, you can create both white light as well as any color in the rainbow. A LED sign is made up of hundreds of LEDs, with full color LED signs requiring thousands. There are multiple factors that can affect how many LED lights your sign requires including: The size of the sign How many colors are needed The quality of resolution needed The amount of LEDs needed in your sign will be determined by the size of the sign, the amount of colors, and the quality of the resolution.
