[Avodah] LED "tealights" for Shabbos candles

You don't need to extapolate from your experience with other LEDs about how well
they radiate that light. The whole idea behind their design is that the
light they give is comparable in brightness and color to that of a candle.

That was the point of my last post. I accepted that the LEDs R’nTK asked about were bright. I was asking what about my case with the dim LEDs that are just visible as “on” / “off” indicators. That was the diff between your response and RLK. He seemed to think that even the tiny bit of illumination they provide is adequate for ner Shabbos – I was asking for some authority on this issue in the poskim. My own gut feeling was that they were not adequate so I was asking if there was discussion of this matter in the poskim as to the difference of opinion between RLK and myself.
