I have used regular RED (labeled "ultrabright") 20mA LEDs operated at only 1mA for a power-on indicator in battery powered equipment, and they are still bright enough to see in sunlight...

You also pulse a LED at 5mA for 10% of the time and get a brigher output than if you deliver 1mA continuously.
