;de-dome: to remove the round plastic dome over the die on an LED; if the beam is properly focused by a reflector, the overall throw can be increased since the reflector sees a smaller die. Domes are not usually meant to be removed and it can be tricky removing one without damaging the LED.


;die: the part of the LED that actually produces light. It is usually yellow and protected by a clear dome.
