Q. Hi, I have pupils doing a school project on Planck's constant. Is it possible to get the wavelength of this LED?
A. Hi Ken, thank you for your question. 940nm according to the data sheet for the L-34F3C.

Q. the description title shows emitting diode but the tech spec and photo shows two items. The diode emitter and a phototransistor. If I placed an order for 58-0100 do I get both items? Hope I do?
A. Hi Mike. Thank you for your question. The image shown is representative of the range. 58-0100 is for the emitter diode only and 58-0105 is for the sensor diode.
I can echo Ian Camerons comments on product 58-0320. These LEDs are also perfect for use with the Wii. You can easily use them to make your own wii sensor bar for less than a quid by sticking a few of these across 2.4V (2x NiMH batteries) in series with 18R or 22R resistors.
