# Lightsource LEDS
-The WPR lightsource is built around 3 high-power, monochromatic LEDs mounted onto an industry-standard 20 mm LED star.
+The WPR light source is built around 3 high-power, monochromatic LEDs mounted onto an industry-standard 20 mm LED star package.
-Compatible LED stars are commercially availible in discrete wavelength ranges across the UV-Visible spectrum.
+WPR-comptabile LED stars emitting narrow wavelength ranges across the UV-Visible spectrum are available from multiple vendors. A few are detailed below.
-Custom LED stars mounted with 3.5 mm surface mount LEDs of any wavelength can be fabricated using a reflow oven.
