    What are the characteristics of a diffusion LED? I need a diode that shines in such a way that the light can be seen from every viewing angle. I don`t care about the diode shining in spots (like super-strong diodes for flashlights). I would also like it to not show any darker or brighter points when looking at the diode light, I need it to shine uniformly over its entire front surface. I hope someone will help me. Thanks in advance.

    The diffusion LED has a frosted lens, unlike a regular diode, which allows it to shine at a larger angle.

    In a diffusion diode, you cannot see the structure inside (it does not shine "in spots" like a super bright one). You are looking for such a diode.

    I once made something like this using ordinary diodes to illuminate the inside of a computer - I sanded the whole diode a bit with fine sandpaper and it turned out fine.

    Kingbright, or whatever the company is called, produces (I think he was the first one to start)
    super bright red diodes, designation L53SRxy, where x and y indicate the housing
    and brightness - if you need high brightness and diffused light, then L53SRDH.
    x=C (clear - focused beam), x=D (diffused - dispersed),
    y=A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H - the further away, the greater the brightness and price.
