LEP stands for Laser Excited Phosphor. The light source is a blue laser diode, which is directed at a phosphor layer to make white light. With the first LEP flashlight available in 2018, there are currently a few dozen LEP flashlights, mainly from China. At the moment, there are 2 types of LEP modules used.<ref>{{Cite web |title=The 2 types of LEP modules currently available {{!}} LEPflashlight.com |url=https://lepflashlight.com/types-of-lep-modules/ |access-date=2023-10-10 |website=lepflashlight.com/ |language=en-US}}</ref> The laser light either shines through the phosphor layer to produce white light, or is directed at the layer by a mirror. The mirror-type is built inside a plastic module, while the shine-through models are usually built with a copper/aluminum shell, and much smaller than the plastic type.
