Cree XHP50.2

Which is weird, because it can be used to upgrade an XML2 light with the 5*5mm dimensions…
Just find a way to push 6V through it, and you’re good.
BTW I’ve still to find a good high CRI XHP50 in the 4000Kish

I would definitely like something with even more lumens than an XHP70 :slight_smile:
The CBT140 from luminus is too inefficient.

No doubt it’s discussed somewhere, but I want to see HI versions of XHP70 and 50.

I’m not sure how well a dome-less emitter goes together with the new type of rough phosfor, you may not have the same die luminance (=throw) upgrade that the XP-L Hi has over the XP-L.

looks like the phosphor is a continuous blanket completely covering the quad die. I would expect no black cross, but probably back to the evil tint shift we had just started to get away from.

I more expect the same as the Nichia 144A, with the cross reduced, and yellow:

Mount it on a gun: you have illumination AND a crosshair.

hmm good pic Djozz, guess I’ll have to wait and see.

It seems the all of the 5050 footprint LEDs have gone out of fashion.

Made me chuckle :smiley:

Edit: Maybe they come with windage and elevation adjustments?

Not quite, there is the new Luminus SST-40, essentially a clone of the XM-L2.

Interesting datasheet, anyone tried them out or seen them for sale?

This looks interesting… I hope they are not only optimized for optics use.

The new Olight s10R III uses it, efficiency is about the same or maybe a tad higher than the XM-L2 judging by the amp draw but there is massive tint shift betweeen hotspot and spill. (Very cool tint at the edge)

Use tintshift for elevation adjustment.

I’d rather see them produce a 6V only version using the same process as the MTG-2 or XPG-3 foregoing the 12V option in favor of a clean beam. I for one appreciate the XM footprint since I mostly work with small to medium size hosts.

Thanks mate!

I think this is better for general use. Dedoming will be no good any more.

The normal XHP50 could be dedomed easily? Last I heard all the XHP series was a royal pain to dedome and thats why most sliced the done.

Slicing seems to work nicely though :wink:

Any one else notice the OP dome.

And that the dome seems to have phosphor mixed into it.
