   Correct.. I'm trying to get my customer understand that with the   
   current limitations (total of 15mm^2 LED surface radiating into   
   almost half-space and a 0.8mm NA 0.5 fiber) it is impossible   
   to get more light into the fiber. Also, I'd like to be able to   
   explain the same to our EEs.
