Cool. I’d be interested to see something like this in a 5mm through-hole package, like the ones Yuji used to sell.
I kept this since last month because Nichia told me not to leak it until they’re announced. Finally it’s official!
The only problem is they’re still low powered at 25 - 30 lumens/pc
I exchanged the 219D sample offerings with this new LED 
- Clemence
Interesting…
And, umm… Clemence? 219D? Care to elaborate?
Edit: sorry to thread jack. Just excited with all these new LEDs. Noticed the 219D listing though I haven’t digested it yet.
Yes 219D newer version of 219C, I have no interest on it. The max CRI is currently only Ra8000
If you’re going for performance upgrade from 219C it’s better to use 319A R8000. Unless tighter beam is what you’re after.

Subscribed for now! 
Surface mount leds with about half the lumens of run-of-the-mill 5730s. I recently had the pleasure of reflowing a 100-pack of them on an electric induction stove. Time consuming task…
Question with regards to these is footprint and boards' availability. 
Cheers :-)
clemence, why 25-30 lm? Datasheet say that 24lm it is for 65 mA, but maximum curent is 150-200mA without overdrive.
Officially 25-30lumens, since this is BLF, well…150lumens should be doable
- Clemence
If it can do 150 lm, it’s interesting.
For a quad-led headlamp you don’t need more than 100 lm/LED really.
Sample delivery scheduled in 2018 February 14. Will be available via the store in 3000K and 5000K only. Have no idea about the binning and quantity.

I feel another virence order coming…
Maybe enough violet for violet stuff to shine, we'll see. I wonder how actually good are modern leds in this regard (remember this sort of violet we see on our displays really isn't violet). 
Cheers 
Will these fit the quad boards? I understand they are bigger than e21 but they are low power ones so gapless setup prrhaps?
I think so too. But can’t give any suggestions until I tested them. Being a low power LED (away from BLF habit) any non DTP boards should serve it well. It’s
overall footprint is symmetrical unlike Yuji but the the anode-cathode pads aren’t.

UPDATE 180214:
3000K and 5000K “full spectrum” Optisolis depart from JPN to ID. Happy valentine everybody!
- Clemence
The optisolis spectrum begs for a UV bandpass filter. the rest of the spectrum is just BB without that dip at 480nm
If heat output is low enough, you could design your own pcb and make a cob lantern out of it. It’d take an ungodly number of these led’s to get decent output and efficiency though. I’d want a thousand emitters, maybe a lot more, and there’s no way I’m reflowing that many emitters.
It seems unsuitable for light bulbs. Maybe it’d be okay for panel lights, and excellent for lighting film sets. Computer monitor backlighting may be a good application.
This Graph doesn’t make sense to me. This new LED should have a lower color temperature. There is more red spectral content in relation to the blue peak compared to the other LEDs.
Any update on these Clemence?
