[GB ended, news update only] Last batch of 219B sw45k R9080 and sw40 R9080

UPDATE 180611:
PO processed, all LEDs are available and order secured. Now I have to find a way to complete the payment. The easiest way is via Singapore since all the banks are closed until 180621.

Yikes. Iā€™m not even sure Iā€™d know where to start :slight_smile:

Thanks for doing this for us :+1:

I just hope that Clemence does it a bit for himself too and makes some sort of living out of it.

Thatā€™s always been the idea. But every time I got extras, the fund always goes to another project. This time ALL the extra funds goes directly to the two new 20mm boards prototyping cost (which always very expensive). The last time I spent USD 1.540 + USD 770 duty tax just for 60 pcs prototypes (those VR16S1 and VR16SP4). Fortunately they work very well.

I guess unless Nichia pausing for a year in producing new variants, this will be a never ending cycle for me. But donā€™t worry, the general lighting and street lights business has been relatively thriving this year, Iā€™ll live.

UPDATE 180621:
Payment to Nichia sent. Order processed, Nichia will update the shipment date soon

- Clemence

Clemence, you have become the high CRI god for us all. :smiley:

:laughing:

UPDATE 180625
Items shipped from JPN to ID

- Clemence

Woohoo! Iā€™m doing my little cat-dance over here in anticipation. :smiley:

woahā€¦iā€™m too lateā€¦.again :person_facepalming:

UPDATE 180629:
Packet released from the custom

- Clemence

Canā€™t wait for mine to arrive :smiley:

Anyway, does anyone have the latest 219b datasheet? Canā€™t get the datasheet from Nichia anymore.

Here ya go:

Weā€™re lucky, the airport is now closed due to mount Agung eruption (again). The packet arrived yesterday.
This means thereā€™s a chance of delayed outbond shipping.

- Clemence

Thanks for your help :slight_smile:

I read the news about the eruption. I hope youā€™re okay.

Clemence,

Does the assortment of the optisolii come with this shipment?

Thanks!

Packing list:

- 219B sw45k

- 219B sw40

- Optisolis sm 273, 303, 353, 403, 503, 653

- E21A sm403

  • E21A sm453 (later next week)

Great!

And there are 20mm MCPCB for quadtrix E21A and quad Optisolis incoming too. More MCPCB to come next month.
Stay tuned.

- Clemence

Is it a good time to preorder some presoldered 20mm boards/leds?
