Hey guys. I was wondering... I'm thinking of buying some LEDs. But I don't really know the pros and cons. Like how long would they last? Could you use them over and over again? and what type would be the best to buy?

A lot of people here have different favorites and each has their pros and cons.
I buy my LED's off of a ebay store and love them. They are bright, come in different colors, and work for what I want to do with them. They are cheap though, and some prefer the more expensive models that may last longer and have better performance, but really... it's all about personal preference.

LED sticks or LED's themselves?
I'm assuming you mean LED's themselves. Generally, it seems that you get what you pay for, just make sure you shop around for the best deal you can find.

I love my LED glowsticks =)
Im really busy , and the LED sticks come in handy, i can just turn them on whenever i wanna practice and then off again! LOL thats the obvious advantage i guess.
I dont see any disadvantages to LED sticks

I have been using Inovas for about a week and I love them. They are not expensive and they are pretty bright.
