It's got 8, but unlike other LED's I've had, you can see them from the side as well; they even seem larger. This thing is very bright and the whole dome lights up. I don't know how many amps it uses, but I'm sure it's less than the 1156 tail light bulb I had. The beehive does not appear to have a reflector. It's completely sealed, so that's a good thing against the elements. It's about 2 inches in diameter and about 1 1/2 inches high.

I likes it.

Used the Philips Masterline power-saver 20W halogen today. That thing is every bit as bright as my 35W halogen, but the beam is much tighter (it's an 8 degree spot as opposed to a wider flood.) I was able to produce a brightness of about 55W with only 40W of power, which is more tolerable for my battery's run-time. I was very impressed!
