      OMG!! A Point-Light for any led, it's a rendering nightmare... 😮

        Not if it's just a handful of LED for close ups.

          i think majid's and earthmover's LEDS are most convincing. majid captured that falloff that you get with LEDS...they act like mini spotlights (well the one on my keyring does anyway). So I imagine loading an IES will work well.

            OK, this time I modeled a tiny metalic "cone of shame" (he he he) around an even tinier emitter, to better simulate the light source in a LED.

            I'm not sure if I like this image better than the previous one:
            closeup5.jpg

            Different exposure:

            EDIT: Added the model with the cone.

                  First try

                  (I know I am a little slower at getting this done than some of you. Actually we found a bug where we were processing curved light emitters too slowly, so this helped fix up the software as well)

                    Dang. Majid, you beat me to it. I should've checked this thread before building my LED. Oh well, here it is anyway. Feel free to do what you will with it. It's a bit overboard detail-wise, I even threw in a few air inclusions.

                          Ok mate, I tried to keep and respect your level of details, hope you like it 😉 (distort correction and a bit of bluring , by PS )

                              Nice job. I used KT as well, gotta work on my materials. Only thing about KT is that it doesn't do volumetric light beams, so I got the same result as you did in your red LEDs; a bright surface light, but nothing "inside" the LED.

                                    Some nice attempts of rendering LED strip but you wanna try chip leds as opposed to those 5mm. This would be a lot easier..
