Does anyone have a good source for XM-Ls? I have been trying to find a reliable us source and have struck out. (Going to do similar test to Match but with dry ice) Thanks. :)

You can get cheap and you can get quality there is a difference. I always get mine from LCKLED unless Shiningbeam has something interesting or there is a group buy at Cutter. If you are looking for a T6 in 3C tint cnqualitygoods has the best ones.

Nope they ship from China but they are super quick if they have your item in stock average 12-16 days. The only problem with them is they don't have any English speaking sales people so forget about asking questions or returns etc..

I want to find a source for XM-L in either 2A or 2D on an MCPCB but I can't find any. Cutter might have them but only half their stock seems to have product codes identifying tint bin. I'll order from Digikey and attempt reflowing.

Edit: I highly recommend IlluminationSupply without reservation. I've placed 5+ orders there. Craig provides great customer service and he ships very fast (2 days coast to coast) for not much money.

@Slim: Your link is broken. :P

I think I just saw a deal alert for some really cheap ones. Let me check. (Edit: Nevermind. They were some weird 12v warm white xmls.)

Thanks for catching that, I'll fix it when I can get to a computer.

Edit: link fixed, hopefully

I have only dealt with the Melbourne office and have nothing but good things to say about them.

There is a US distributer that someone here might have had dealings with that may wish to comment.
