Tri-colour indicators include two different coloured LED's. As standard, the two LED's will shine symmetrically and output a light with the mixture of the two. The best way to understand the function would be similar to mixing paint. As an example red and green would make yellow, if the two LED's were red and green, the emitting light from the indicator would be a bright yellow.

Uses of indicators fall entirely down to the user. They can be fixed to PCB circuit boards and mounted on push buttons and switches. Primarily, these types of indicators are used within circuit boards and electronic designs. This is due to their relatively small size, as compared with other types of indicators, such as car turn signals.

Longevity and low power consumption are the main selling points of an LED. However, there are various other reasons to consider:

• Temperature - LED's give off a far cooler temperature than what an incandescent or neon light would.
• Direction - LED's will only emit light in a single direction, reducing the need for additional components, such as reflectors. Although this wouldn't apply if the LED indicator is being used as a circuit board signal.
• Cost - typically as LED's are in a larger supply than standard bulbs or pilot lights, they are a more cost effective solution to purchase, as well as run.

Absolutely, each LED indicator is fully supplied with a fixing nut, washer and a gasket. To ensure a quick and easy installation process.
