Plexon’s second generation, super-intensity PlexBright LED Modules provide outstanding light stability and pulse characteristics – all within a very small footprint. Our ever-expanding series of powerful, fiber-coupled PlexBright LED Modules effectively elicit responses from several opsins targeted in neuroresearch, including channelrhodopsins (ChRs), archaerhodopsins (Arch) and halorhodopsins (NpHR).

PlexBright Compact LED Modules provide the same performance as the PlexBright Table-top LED Modules, only in an ultra light-weight and miniaturized package designed to be mounted to either of our PlexBright Commutators that deliver power to the LEDs as they spin freely along with a behaving animal. These modules have recently been enhanced to feature a magnetic connection to the commutator. The new style of magnetic attachment enables faster module interchangeability. These Compact LED Modules are compatible with the PlexBright Dual LED Commutator, PlexBright Dual LED + 16 Channel Commutator for simultaneous neural recording with analog headstages, or the NEW Carousel™ Commutator for simultaneous neural recording with digital headstages.
PlexBright LED Modules come in a wide range of wavelengths and are capable of emitting continuous, stable, and quick-responding light through the tip of a 200µm core, custom developed optical fiber. PlexBright LED Modules are available in the following ten wavelengths: Royal (450nm), Blue (465nm), Green (525nm), NEW Lime (550nm), Yellow (590nm), Orange (620nm), Red (630nm) Crimson (660nm), Infrared 1 (850nm) and Infrared 2 (940nm).
