@zak.wilson

R9080 is quite the novelty. I’d have gone for a bunch, but the tint chart has me concerned they’ll be unpleasantly rosy and I don’t want to be greedy when there’s a limited supply.

I’m really curious about how the 319A will do driven hard. It fits under Carclo triple optics, so it could potentially be a great option for high-performance triples.

319A can physically fits all optics designed for 219C. Check my OP for side view comparison pics. Beam shapes is another story though….
Not yet tested

@djozz

wow, D440 ! I have not done the calculation but that sounds like XP-L territory

Don’t forget,it’s binned at 1050mA. Will test them tonight

I’m not sure how that influences the bin nr exactly, apart from that comparison is not one to one, but I will wait for your test

[aslpg]

I’ll take please:

6 x NVSL219CT SM403 [4000K]

Thanks a lot!

That means if it’s tested at 700mA like 219C the output is comparable to D320. I checked the datasheet.
I will only do the beamshot test with whatever optics I have in hand. You do the usual Djozz STD (killing) test.

Clemence, again going above and beyond with those beamshots!
Very helpful in getting a perspective on these tints.
The 219B V1 9080 looking good amongst the rest.

Pics of the labels and 319A comparison are also much appreciated. :+1:

[RollerBoySE]

@chouster

shipping option #3 please

@RollerBoySE

I’ll take 5 x NVSW219CT SM503

Came late, unfocus, and went home earlier.

I see, thanks for clarifying.
That implies that 319 performance may be similar to 219, but who knows what happens at high currents, it may be more robust or maintains output better because of the slightly bigger die. At least then I count on beautiful beam profiles!

@steve42

There’s 5 open #s for the Texas Ace list of the 219B-V1 9080 sw45k
but my name should already be down for 2 of those.

Sorry about that, what all are you wanting? I see I have you down for the 2700k 219c, I might have put your name in the wrong LED by mistake.

Everyone please check your orders after I update the lists to make sure I have them right.

@Lights-Out

Texas-Ace l take the last 5?……219B 4500 9080CRI

I put you down for 5 but if we do not have enough whoever is at the bottom of the list will sadly have to wait until next time.

@scianiac

Shipping from Texas Ace, can I get the following, might change if the binning on these is surprisingly biased.

3x line 8 NVSW319ATE SM655 [6500K 5 steps MacAdams] 7000
3x line 9 NVSL319ATE SM305 [3000K 5 steps MacAdams] 8000
6x line 10 NVSL319ATE SM455 [4500K 5 steps MacAdams] 8000

Added

@Speed4goal

I’d like 2x 219c 5000k 90cri

Done

@Tjohn

TA

Thanks…the first part of my order is correct.

Now I’d like to add some 219CT leds

3 × 219CT sm353
3 × 219CT sm403

Got it

@Caleb

TA, I’m in California.

Please put me down for:

5 x NVSL219B-V1 SW45K

5 x NVSL219CT SM403 [4000K 3 steps MacAdams]

Thank you!

I am pretty sure the 219B are sold out but I put you down anyways. When the offical inventory count is done those at the bottom of the list will sadly have to wait until next time, I added you for the 219C though.

[Texas_Ace]

Everyone please double check your orders after I update the lists, I am busy in the “real world” and don’t have a lot of time to keep up with this thread.

If you spot a mistake please let me know.

[moridin]

@chouster
If available:

3x NVWL219CT SM573
2x NVSL319ATE SM505
2x NVSW319ATE SM655

Thanks!

[emarkd]

So if I’m understanding correctly these are not the last of the 219b-v1 sw45k? That was the speculation in the last discussion thread, that these may be discontinued and the last of the breed.

If that’s not the case and more can be bought later, then its a no-brainer: cut my 219b-v1 count from 10 to 4 so that others can get in this round. I’ll get more later.

If that is still the case, last of the 219b sw45k’s right here, then still cut me but I’d really like to keep 6…

Yes and no. I called Nichia today.
From now on, every 219B-V1 9080 will be produced in much less quantity. Could be stopped when there’s no demand. Large order must be planned ahead.
For small order quantity we have to rely on what’s left in Nichia’s stock. I asked him for future larger order and he couldn’t gave me any answer in availability. 500 pcs “should” be there but more than that then he have to check to JPN.
And FYI, we’re very lucky to get such D220 bin. Even those 9050 219C maxed in only D240

Thanks for the clarification. So its a gamble; got it. I’m not really a betting man So I guess let’s split the difference — let me keep 5 of them but turn the other 5 back loose to the group so others can get it, if that’s okay.

TA,
I checked the update and see you put me in for 3 of the sm303 (3000K.) by mistake.

Please alter it to 3 x sm353 (3500K.).

Thanks again.

[kaybi]

Chouster, I’d like 5 NVSL219CT SM403 [4000K 3 steps MacAdams].

I’m new to group buys in here. Should I also PM chouster with my order to ask about payment?

[chouster]

I’ll add you.

No, guys, please don’t write me PM at this point. Will contact you.

[kaybi]

Perfect, thank you.

The people here at BLF seem to really stick together, the group buys and projects are amazing. Thanks for the effort.
