The Hunt for the Perfect LED Continues!

Did you actually measure the lumens with an integrating sphere or are those the seller’s numbers?

Hi Pyro,

Unfortunately I don’t have access to those nifty devices. I read your previous blog entries - great stuff!

I imagine if you spoke to their engineer he’d be able to provide that kind of info.

I’m just a simple light enthusiast from the Sunny Coast!

Drop them a line - I’d be interested to hear your findings.

Is that newer L-Prize available in: E27 and for 230V with intl shipping available?

I would like to know that too. Btw I found a video with the new model:

And this one with the one I have ordered (price 30 EURO):
Last year model

Cree also has a version (don’t know if it’s available):

Interesting, because they all use what they call “remote phosphor”. I think there could be a phosphor layer in the outer shell, which lights up when hit by light from bluish LED’s (but I could be wrong).

Kind of odd these don’t take advantage of the directionality of LED’s. A good portion of lamps aren’t ominidirectional.

I will keep you all posted on the results & some pics when the bulbs are installed.

We’re looking forward!

Uh…
mickasunshinecoast hasn’t been seen for over a decade.
I doubt that they’ll be posting any results.
