[SALE] High CRI 90+ Nichias (ENDED)

Payment sent to Djozz for 10 leds and 5 boards.

Update 161226: The sm453 144AM from Japan already received in DHL Denpasar - Bali. Will be delivered to my place tomorrow.

Can you test one to check for the “Spiegelei”-problem?

I will do that tomorrow when I have them. Don’t worry, I won’t export egg yolks to you guys. :smiley:

Package arrived today. :slight_smile:

Looking forward to the SM453 144AM.

Nice Jerommel, I hope the other packages will arrive well too.

Had time to do a quick mod with the 219C SM353 and I like it an awful lot, my new favorite led. Like the 5000K 219C that has been around for a while, it behaves well in reflector lights.



Could not find the right white balance, the light is warm-ish but not this warm.

Hi Jos,

For your reference……

That looks good clemence, but my (Xperia Z3 compact) phone camera does not let me set a colour temperature for the white balance, just a random choice of 5 standard settings, plus an ‘auto’ setting that sometimes does the right thing but more often not.

Oh wow, that does look nice. I skipped the 353 because I thought it would be too close to the 403 to be worth fooling with, so I went with the 305 instead. Maybe I was wrong. Next time…

I’m still using Xperia V. It’s an ancient phone before the Z era. Often when I don’t have my Olympus EM5 in hand I use camera FV-5 application. Much better control than the sluggish OEM camera application. Sent you the link via Whatsapp

I finally got around to posting up the results of my output tests with the 4000k emitters, they are basically the same as the 83cri test djozz ran before but with a bit lower output naturally. I had the test setup out and figured I might as well see what they can do.

I made up a bunch of S2’s with these LED’s for Christmas gifts and they turned out great, I am also using it in my EDC now as well. With the OP S2 Reflector it is a good beam and tint but with a TIR it is simply stunning. Something about how the TIR mixes the beam just makes things look even better. This is part of why I prefer TIR’s in most lights. If I want flood then I will pull out a mixed tint triple :sunglasses:

Nice to see the 219C R9050 sm57x/sm50x listed!

Soooo, true. I’m a fan of TIR too. Will try the 67mm Gaggione thrower optics later

Indeed =)
How’s the light bar project? I made some drawings for you earlier

Interesting!
I like TIR optics too.
but which ones to buy…???

What’s your application? What size?
I got all my Gaggiones from Supreme Components Singapore: http://supremecomponents.com/
And they’re not cheap :cry:

Another fan of TIR optics over reflectors here.
For your typical 25mm diameter tube flashlight, one my favorites is the Ledil LXP-RS

Nice throwy beam, yet smooth enough for close up work.
Goes great with the Nichias!

Where can we buy those?

Ledil LXP-RS can be bought from digikey

Made for the Cree XP series so goes great with the Nichia.
