Claim:
1. An LED signaling device for a bicycle, comprising: at least one lighting module, each one of the at least one lighting module having a light-emitting diode (LED) array mounted on a substrate, wherein the LED array has multiple LEDs arranged in the form of an array, the LED array including: a controller electrically connected to each LED of the LED array to control the LED to be operated under an illumination mode or an unlit mode, wherein the illumination mode includes a first illumination state and a second illumination state, and the controller controls a value of a current flowing through the LED array during the first illumination state to be lower than the value of the current flowing through the LED array during the second illumination state, such that luminance of the LEDs of the LED array lit at the first illumination state is darker than luminance of the LEDs of the LED array lit at the second illumination state, and each LED lit under the first illumination state and the second illumination state is selectively blinked; a power module electrically connected to the LED array and the controller; and an operation interface electrically connected to the controller to output at least one operation command to the controller for the controller to drive the LED array to generate at least one corresponding signal symbol independently or intermittently displayed at the same luminance level or alternatively displayed at different luminance levels, and the operation interface having a rocker switch for sending an operation command to the controller; wherein a right end or a left end of the rocker switch is pressed to output a third corresponding operation command to the controller for the controller to control the LED array to display a right-turn symbol taking a form of a right arrow with the V-shaped portion on the right and the center line portion of the LED array operated under the second illumination state and the rest of the LEDs of the LED array operated under the unlit mode or a left-turn symbol taking a form of a left arrow with the V-shaped portion on the left and the center line portion of the LED array operated under the second illumination state and the rest of LEDs of the LED array operated under the unlit mode on the LED array.
