Group Buy: Wuben TO10R and TO46R (real 90+CRI triple XP-G3) - CLOSED!!

1 Nichia 5000k
2 Nichia 4500k
3 Nichia 4000k
4 Cree 4500k

1.) Nichia 5000k Would love it
2.) Nichia 4500k Would love it
3.) Nichia 4000k Would love it
4.) Cree 5000k Can live with
5.) Cree 4500k Can live with

Here’s my vote:

Nichia 5000K = 1
Nichia 4500K = 1
Nichia 4000K = 2
CREE 4500K = 2
CREE 5000K = 2

Hopefully not too confusing. Either of the first two Nichias would be fabulous. For the Nichia 4000K and the CREEs, I’d rather have the light than not, so really it comes down to whichever is likely to be a guaranteed delivery.

1. Nichia 4500K
2. Nichia 5000K

1 Nichia 5000K/4500K
2 Nichia 4000K
3 CREE 5000K/4500K (don’t care much for green tints)

But I’m in either way, thanks =the= for the effort.

1 Nichia 4500K
2 Nichia 4000K
3 Nichia 5000K
4 CREE (don’t want any green tint)

Not sure if it will fit but the XPL2 4500k 80CRI doesn’t have the crazy green like the 90CRI version. I tried the tint on the Zebralight SC5W II and it’s pretty decent.

Well I was just going to place my order and saw this. I will go with what ever the group decides, hopefully they will extended the order deadline until after the decision is made.

1 Nichia 4500K (219B sw45k)
1 Nichia 4500K (219C sm453)
1 Nichia 5000K (219C sm503)
1 Nichia 4000K (219C sm403)
3 Cree 4500K
3 Cree 5000K

I will go with what the group decides.

Any CREE or Nichia 4500k or 5000k for me, preferably 5000k. I wouldn’t have signed up if I knew I was going to have to settle for 4000k. Don’t like the 4000k and didn’t necessarily pay for 4000k. I understand things happen but, earned money spent on a light I won’t use is a waste of earned money. This is the first group buy I have participated in. I have seen some group buys take a year or more to complete and get full of problems and hard feelings. I don’t want it to end up like that. Everyone bought the light at 5000k and 5000k it should stay. Ordering a few hundred lights with 4 different emitter options would be ridiculously time consuming and almost impossible. That’s just my two cents.

If it all goes to hell I have options to get my money back. Paypal and my credit card company has provisions for being charged for a particular product and then being told you can’t have it.

On a separate note, I never even received a confirmation of my payment by anyone. Don’t know if they were suppose to send anything or not.

I’m ok with what the group decides also.

1. Nichia 4500K
3. Nichia 4000K
5. Cree 4500K
2. Nichia 5000K
4. Cree 5000K

1. Any Nichia
2. Any Cree

Status update: Feels like Friday the 13th for sure.. There are still major problems sourcing the emitters. Both Wuben and me are working hard to find a good source for 5000K emitters (preferably Nichia), but so far without success. Because of these problems, the payment deadline is extended to "one week after" we have solved the problems.

Please accept our sincere apologies for the situation and try to wait patiently!

On the other hand, threatening me/Wuben with PayPal or Credit card company disputes makes me feel (even more) sad and is totally unnecessary. Just send me a PM if you want to bail out. A full refund will be issued in a short time. [In the absolutely worst case I may have to buy all unclaimed lights, but I think I can live with it]

1. Nichia 4500K
2. Nichia 4000K
3. Nichia 5000K / Cree 4500K
4. Cree 5000K (waiting for more than 10 weeks….)

I apologize for my un-intended reply to all message.

You’re not the only one to do it :blush:
