   I think this is an under-used(?) 1W LED.   
      
   If I can’t find a direct replacement I’m considering flipping   
   the PCB it’s soldered to and using the copper side to solder a SMD   
   unit. That way can dissipate some W.   
      
   But that presents its own set of problems. Optics will need to be matched to   
   the new LED.   
      
   Hmm...
