Gary, I was recently in conversation with UL about LEDs whereas I am
now being told that UL has convinced the European counterparts that
LEDs are no longer considered Class I Lasers and the requirements for
them to be tested as such has been dropped. UL no longer treats them
that way in their CB Reports.

IEC-825 has incorporated LED's into the safety standard but, from
what I can tell, left a great deal of confusion.
I typically deal with the 5 - 10 mcd devices and haven't been
required to provide any IEC-825 conformity proof for the Western
European test house. We may be jumping up to about 60 mcd and
non-focused devices and I don't know where the standard starts to
become concerned. I hate to buy the standard if it doesn't provide any
clarity for these types of parts.
Could you folks clue me in?
