Hewlett Packard makes several extra bright LEDs.  They were offering them
free in a demo package a few months ago.  Check out a back issue of
Electronics or Electronic Design.  I got a couple and am very impressed.
They produce a very bright light at 20 ma current and are also great for
low current designs with normal light output.  I use one for a tail light
on my bicycle!
See HP for the specs.
