Just curious - I've bought the "triple output high power RGB LED" before and had good luck (http://www.sparkfun.com/products/8718), but I've seen similar items on other sites for much, much less (such as http://www.dealextreme.com/p/3w-led-emi ... d-rgb-4530). What is it that accounts for the large difference in cost between these items? For one-time projects, I don't mind buying from SparkFun, but when I start thinking about using SparkFun products for kits, the cost becomes a bit prohibitive. Just wondering if someone had some insight about why the cost is so high. Thanks!
