Where can I find this little LED thing?
Ichisuke:
I lost one of this. It was inside an old glass flower thing. The one in the picture is inside a more recent glass Christmas decoration. I'm not able to find information on this exact light. I'd like to buy another but I don't know the precise model for this. I've tried googling different photos but there are no results. I could buy another glass decoration object but I wouldn't know what type of little led there's inside, since it has to be that size to fit in correctly.
Gyro:
That looks like a custom COB (Chip On Board) PCB to me, with clear epoxy coating rather than the normal black. It doesn't have the look of something that was purchased from a normal semiconductor manufacturer. Your best bet is probably to look on a China marketplace like Ali, it might be used in other Chinese stuff too.
Brumby:
Agreed.
I have some LEDs and heatsink PCB for them (ex China) that would look something like that. But it would be useful to have some idea of size.
AndyBeez:
What does that LED do? Is it a RGB, flickering, duo color, chromatic [color changing], white type?
You might find some of the 5050 size surface mount LEDs are a good match. If we know what it does.

In size it's like a bit bigger than an LR41 battery. You actually use 3 of those batteries and insert everything in the bottom of the object you have to illuminate. So it definitely takes 4.5volts.

This one slowly changes the light from red to blu to purple. The one missing had a flashing effect instead but I'm not looking for a specific effect, just one compatible in size that I can put in the decorative object.
