Usage:

1. Connect the longer lead (anode) to the positive terminal of the power supply.
2. Connect the shorter lead (cathode) to the negative terminal.
3. Use a current-limiting resistor in series to prevent overcurrent damage to the LED.
4. Ensure the correct polarity before powering on.

Caution:

• Use a suitable current-limiting resistor.
• Do not exceed the recommended forward current.
• Avoid direct eye exposure to the LED light.
• Handle with care to avoid damage to the leads.
