Second Generation Silver Plated High Current Beryllium Copper Springs and 95+CRI SST20!

The 4000k SST-20 will be available with the springs, no problem there.

I’m just trying to find a lead for below BBL SST-20 4000k 95CRI, and I haven’t yet.

I’m really sorry if it’s taking a long time. Trying to find tight bins on new LEDs is really hard, since I have to ask places like Digikey, Mouser, Arrow, Cutter, etc, to see if they stock specific tint bins of the LED, and most of the time, they say no, they either have no stock, or the stock they have isn’t what we want :frowning:

Then make my (10) 4000k order, 3500K instead.

No, no. I’ve edited my post.

I meant that I’m not ordering them yet, until I find a source of good below BBL SST-20s.

If I can find SST-20 4000k under the BBL this January, then I’ll order the springs and SST-20s 4000k at the same time.

Otherwise, I’ll just get the springs.

Thats ok. I am not in a hurry. If it takes a bit longer i wait patiently!

Ok I’ll order 10 SST-20 3500k. Would have ordered more if it was J4 bin but can’t always expect perfect.

Oh yeah, I made a mistake :person_facepalming:

The GA3 bin at Mouser is in stock now, not in the J3 bin, but J4 flux bin.

We hit the jackpot for the 3500k!

The only way we could get the 3500k in the GA4 chromacity bin, as said before, would be to order a full reel, and go down a flux bin.

But J4 flux bin and GA3 tint bin is still great.

It’s a bit problematic with the 4000k version though…

If the 4000k is not available / or to hard to get i will take 3 of the 3500k. With a Vf this low i will have to search for the right driver for a tripple.

Ok then.

Early adopters 3500k SST-20s J4 Flux bin GA3 Tint bin confirmed:

BlueSwordM 10pcs
Pavlo 4pcs
skinny_tie 5pcs
HONDARIDER 5pcs
808HI 15pcs
Tom E 20pcs
SKV89 10pcs

I’ll take another 10 pieces of the SST 20 3500k

I’m interested in 15 large springs, 5 small springs, and 10 of the 3500k sst leds. Thanks!

I’m glad to be an early adopter if you need more led testers…

Intl-outdoor posted their SST20’s for sale as bare LEDs. Does anyone know what bins they have? Have they been tested by anyone with a color meter?

Yeah, that's disappointing for Hank - no bin info, no 3500's, no details on tint. He's usually good with the details so maybe he doesn't have the specifics on these. Good reason to stick with Blue's buy.

Info listed in TK’s D4S review thread - https://budgetlightforum.com/t/-/52204/1442

Wait, Hank isn’t selling the 3500k variant?

Odd, especially since it’s below the BBL, and would be very nice since you would not have to tint mix using 2 LEDs of each CCT, raising costs and complexity on Hank’s end.

We are at

1530 large springs
1510 small springs
359 SST-20 4000k 95CRI
263 SST-20 3500k 95CRI
105 SST-20 3000k 95CRI

Early birds SST-20 3500k J4 GA3:
BlueSwordM 10pcs
Pavlo 4pcs
skinny_tie 5pcs
HONDARIDER 5pcs
808HI 15pcs
Tom E 20pcs
SKV89 10pcs

We are at 69pcs of LEDs. We need at least 31 more SST-20s 3500k to get the 100pcs cost bracket.

4000k is J5 flux bin FB4 tint bin
3000k is J4 flux bin HD2 tint bin

They are higher tint bins than the other SST-20s available

Then why not post it? He's pretty good at that for others, like the white flats, just seems odd to me why he'd leave that out - maybe he'll add it.

I've bought tons of LED's from Hank over the years - sometimes in qty 50. Someone should just ask him to add the details to the listing - he'd probably do it.

I’ll take 10 x early bird 3500K SST-20. I am much more interested in 4000K below BBL though.

Ok then

Early birds SST-20 3500k J4 GA3:

BlueSwordM 10pcs
Pavlo 4pcs
skinny_tie 5pcs
HONDARIDER 5pcs
808HI 15pcs
Tom E 28pcs
SKV89 10pcs
Bob_McBob 10pcs
netprince 8pcs

95pcs

We just need 13 more so I can PM you guys, and buy the LEDs.

+8 for me, 28 total - hope I get time to use them, but they won't break the bank anyways. I just think they should be bout perfect for my liking... Actually I might use 16-20 in one light so may go quick.
