- Fairchild semiconductor FJN965 is a transistor recommended by an Instructable for driving high current LEDs.
"NOTE: It is important to choose a transistor with a low Vce(on) because we have so little battery voltage to work with. Common audio transistors may work, but will not be able to drive the LEDs to maximum brightness.
"The BC337 is an adequate device; but I have had the best results with the 2SC2500, also available as FSC2500 from Fairchild; the 2SD965 is also acceptable (Fairchild FJN965), as are most transistors designed for 1.5v disposible flash cameras - but be careful of polarity and Vce limits.
These are all available in standard TO-92 form, which, because of the low Vce, can accomodate peaks of 1 Amp or more."- http://quantsuff.com/
