- Comment: Time (and temperature) stability most important.
- Comment: Option of delivering a range of light intensities important (e.g. using various filter settings).
- Comment from Werner: The flexibility in the use of the LED would be very useful for the start counter. Christina: Still need to test stability.
- Questions to Matt: What uniformity could one expect from the plexiglass input system? How many fibers were used to pulse the plexiglass, i.e. how often were they spaced?
- Comment: Matt drew attention to an LED pulser by Paul Smith which might be a useful reference.
