"Optisolis"tm, Nichia starts with ultra-high CRI leds (mid-power currently)

That is exactly what I need, in like 3v ideally but 6v acceptably!

I would also be very interested in getting some 9080s in 5000k. The boosted R9 value is a must for my project.

This one is serial, as far as I could tell from the description

The 5000K Optisolis truly excel during the day time, however as any neutral LED, at night, and at low output they look blueish. Since I use the Optisolis based LE in an e1e bezel, modified for a mule, I wanted to transform an F04 SF diffuser into a midnight time filter by adding an appropriate color film from the Lee swatch book.

I had tried a number of different filters that were supposed to transform daylight to tungsten and I can highly recommend filter #147, called “Apricot”. It transforms the sunlight from the Optisolis to a really pleasant orange tint with the CCT somewhere around 2500K. It is well warmer than a normal incand bulb, but much cooler than the 2000K e21a.

Highly recommended!

@Vesture of Blood, how about some E21As then?

Wouldn’t that be good too?

fun filter,
note the 53% light transmission


They should make 5700k-6500k optisolis LEDs so that the ugly orange/yellow tint goes away and things actually look true white.

I gave away my sample pack of the 219 9080 for they were too pink for my liking, so can not comment on them. I would try that xml2 @6000K with this filter though.

The transmission factor is actually a good thing since you need less luments at night, anyway.

I agree the sw45 9080 is too pink. I dont feel that way about the sw40 9080.

for the xml2 I would be tempted to use minus green instead of peach, for less light loss. But I dont use that xml2, I prefer High CRI lights. I also dont mind some transmission loss, as I usually use lower modes anyway, I dont buy for Turbo.

I tried to get a couple pics of the 6000k xml2, but Im not satisfied with how they turned out, since my phone has no auto white balance. here they are anyway…

with the 147 Apricot

and the 247 Minus Green


(I think half minus green would be enough)

Half minus green 248, transmits 72%. I used it on Olight CW S Mini (sold due to not being High CRI, and is incompatible w Nichia), and Olight S1 Mini High CRI, (sold because it is has low R9 and is difficult to modify)

I also use Lee
249 1/4 minus green, that transmits 82.4%, on my 3000k 219c that I find yellow otherwise, and
279 1/8 minus green, that transmits 86.5%, that I use on the sw40 9080, because I find it a bit yellow also

I do like pink tint better than yellow/green

Lee Filters are great, and I appreciate you sharing your Apricot experience as well.

for those interested, here is a source of Lee Filters sample packs

For heat concerns, Lee makes a Zircon line that is heat resistant:

The 802 Zircon Minus Green reduces lumens by 25, that would be closest to the 1/2 minus Green, that reduces by 28

Lee 248 Half minus green: 71.5%
Zircon 802: 75%

Zircon 803: 79.9%
Lee 249 -Quarter minus green : 81.5%
Zircon 804: 83.6%

Zircon 805: 86.6%
Lee 279 -Eighth minus green : 87.2%

found we had some stock of PCB for Optisolis not sure if the volts and size suits

@welight Mark, please check your inbox

Clemence mentioned the broad range of CCTs but I can’t find a reference to them. Have the spectra for CCTs other than 3L and 5K been published anywhere?

Does anyone know where I can find a PDF/Datasheet for these with the exact mechanical dimensions including the footprint info?

EDIT: Never mind, I just found it LOL!!

Does anyone know where I can pick up 150+ of the 4500k Optisolis?

There’s no 4500K Optisolis. You can only mix the 4000K and 5000K in series connection to get ~4500K. The Vf between them is just too high for parallel connection. If you are OK with that setup then I have 400+ pcs of them in all CCTs.

you can mix warm Optisolis (NF2L757GT-F1) 2700K, 3000K, 3500K, and 4000K in parallel.
you can mix cool Optisolis (NF2W757GT-F1) 5000K and 6500K in parallel.
Bridging those two categories requires series connection

- Clemence

Okay. I think I will give the project a shot with the 4000k samples I got from you, and if it works just go with more of those. I’m not really interested in the mixing :slight_smile:

Bumping an old thread but what are these at rapid electronics?

Nichia NF2L757GT-F1-3080

Nichia NF2W757GT-F1-5080

The datasheet says they are anywhere from CRI 70 to 90. Are they R8000? (80CRI?)

757 is a Nichia family of mid-power emitters in a 3030 (3mm x 3mm). It includes a couple of the very high CRI Optisolis emitters, as well as some very high efficiency emitters, and many versions in between.

I don’t actually see those specific part numbers doing a search on Nichia’s website, and don’t know the 757 part number scheme, but I’m guessing they’re 3000K and 5000K, 80 CRI.
