The Type LS solderless LED socket is designed specifically for use with the Philips Lumileds Luxeon S LED. The socket complies with UL-1977 specifications and uses insulation displacement technology to allow for quick and easy termination of 24-AWG wires to the socket.
The socket features a stainless-steel spring inside to ensure that the normal force applied to the LED is uniform and adequate. The Type S socket also simplifies the positioning of the Luxeon S LED on a heat sink with a plastic locator. (Call company for pricing — production to begin in late March 2011.)
