Cree XHP50.2

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.

Anybody seen these for sale yet? I have a light ready for one of these, just waiting for them to come to market. I want to test it and see how it compares to the old XHP50 and XHP70.

Yes on Kaidomain.com.

Thanks for the heads up!

Wow, they are more expensive then I had hoped / figured they would be.

At least they have some good tints, too bad they are not high CRI as well. I have a sale pending, I might grab one after that although not sure I will want to risk it by running a test on it since I have a light I want to use it in.

Description says “high CRI” and i just ordered a 5A one.

Hmm… 3A is sold out already…

The part number in the picture shows a “B” in the CRI section which is 70CRI. 80cri is H and 90cri is U.

I think the description is just a copy and paste from cree which shows that these leds are offered in high CRI.

O, crap… :frowning:
I should have known….
I just went by the description.
Now i want to cancel the order actually…

The thing I’m most interested in is if they put the dies closer together, I’m presuming these are using the same flip chip tech they’ve been using on the XP-G3 and XP-L2 so maybe that makes it easier to position the dies closer and we’ll get better beams.

Indeed, looking at the pictures we have from the XHP50.2 it looks like they did indeed use this new tech.
Hopefully resulting in a more packed die, almost like the XHP35.

Curious about its increase in performance in both the lumen numbers and throw numbers. Also how to beam will look in a light.

If nothing else they most likely cover the entire surface with phosphor like the nichia 144A, that will drastically reduce the donut hole by itself.

If it is using 4x XP-G3 dies it is quite possible it could give the current gen XHP70 a run for it’s money and have a much more intense beam.

XHP70.2 plz plz plz

I did order a 3A one, if TA is not faster than me (I’m usually not that fast), I will test it to (almost :innocent: ) death.
The 7C that I also ordered will get a nice destination in a flashlight.:slight_smile:

Awesome! :+1: :beer:
