Note:	The Digi-Key part numbers for these LED's are 100CR-ND thru
	103CR-ND, the buest buy (looking at forward current/mcd out/power
	dissapation/etc...) would seem to be the 101CR-ND, but it has the
	smallest viewing angle (16 deg).  The forward voltage drop for these
	devices is a high 3.0 - 3.4 volts, and the max. reverse voltage is a
	very low 5 volts.
