New Luminus SST-20 (3535 size)

In case people didn’t see, maukka did some testing of the 70cri version.

Output vs current looks very similar to XPG2 S4, but with a lower Vf.

I received my triple SST20 3000K MCPCB + optics and put them in my S30RIII triple config. The beam is really nice, round, quite throwy.
The tint is really pleasant, too, and the warm color is great for indoor activities !

OnceI was sure that I liked it, I de-soldered the 3 emitters and try them in other hosts.
I put one in my Emisar D1, it does throw, the tint is nice but on Turbo it looks brownish…
I put another one in my D1S, sliced this time. It does throw, but there’s a strong corona around the hotspot. The tint is not so pleasant.
I think warm throwers are not my thing…

Maybe I’ll try 4 of them in my D4, for a nice tint and to improve the throw.

I wish they exist KD would sell them in 4k ish K with 95CRI.

It does exist in 4000k 95CRI.

It’s just that absolutely no store has them in stock. Absolutely none.

Yeah right, corrected :partying_face:

We must be glad that Ban (Kaidomain) is dedicated to get us those latest leds or we would not get our hands on them at all. It is a business opportunity for him but he is a flashaholic and I’m sure it is a matter of pride for him too.

Yeah, it’s quite incredible to get those newer emitters, I’m really glad Ban does this !
I mean, I can get 3 LEDs plus a triple Noctigon-like MCPCB plus a Carclo-like triple optics for less than 7 bucks… shipped !
Thank you BanL for those niche products you get us !

Thanks! It’s useful

Who are you and why are you here? Introduce yourself! You don’t seem to talk much. All five of your posts so far have been just a few words. Where are you from? Why do you like flashlights? :innocent:

Sometimes I don’t understand KD’a pricing, 3 LEDs with MCPCB is $6.99 and a single bare led is $3.19 and the discount for higher qtys is minimal…

Anyways I’m going to buy 2 triples to make a quad for my Amutorch AT40. (Carclo quad fits perfectly)

Hi friends

We get SST-20 4000K available in KD.

You promise if I order a couple of those, it will be CRI90 or higher? Money back guarantee?

The picture of the reel sticker seems to indicate “white” - “4000K” - “95CRI” so I hope this is what we’ll get…
I’ll order 2 triple to see if I like them anyway

I know, but that wouldn’t be the first time I get something else…

FB4 is above BBL according to the datasheet

Seriously, BanL, please do something about the reliability of your LED sources.

You’re among the best places to buy LEDs in small quantities.
Reasonable pricing, reasonable shipping, reasonable selection.
But we can’t trust that we receive what we ordered. And many of us don’t have the equipment to verify what they got.

This issue alone makes me avoid buying LEDs from kaidomain unless I can’t find a seller I trust more.

Sure

Please don’t worry.

This is coming from the wheel of the LED. I had reserved some for selling in KD.

All the LEDs are directly coming from the distributor.

If you get any problem with the LED, please contact me for assistance.

I was excited to find the 4000K SST-20s when I was browsing KD today, then I looked up the tint bin. Above the BBL?

On other topics, it seems congratulations are in order? Grandpa?

Hi friends

:sunglasses: DA colour bin is close to the BBL :+1:

Too bad its not high CRI, tho (Which isn’t stopping me from adding a few to my next order, along with some of the high-CRI 4000K).
