Ian, IEC 60825-1 Edition 1.2 is likely the current standard regarding safety and classification of both laser and LED products. LED's were introduced several years ago with much debate within TC76, and the two light sources are now used interchangeably within this standard. John A.

I have been informed that LEDs are now classed as laser devices and are subject to specific standards. Can anyone let me know which standards will apply to this product as it is intended to be sold worldwide? Many thanks; Ian McBurney. Allen & Heath Limited. email: [email protected]
