Thanks KB, ad there's more. Hank just emailed me with the part numbers of the low CRI versions:
SST-20-WCS-A120-L3652(L3-VL-BA) 6500K
SST-20-WDS-A120-L2501(L3-VK-DA) 5000K
I asked him to post on the website, we'll see. I got in the 5000K's for their better throw and output, so that DA tint I'm glad to see.
I would assume their the same SST-20's he's using in the Emisars. I email him at contact@intl-outdoor.com, and seems to get back pretty quick, might be an hour or day or two.
@TomE, good god you made me laugh. Magic Line thing. That’s a first
Well, the DA tint bin is precisely what it sounds like: the color tint bin, or how the beam of the light tends to go to a certain color, being red or green, below or above the curve.
The magical line you see is, simply put, the black body line. A perfect 100CRI light source will be on this line, every time. Otherwise, it might actually drift to slight green, or slight red.
Slight red is preferred by most people since it looks more saturated.
@teacher, did not even recognize you initially. Thought someone else jumped in.
And yes, that means most of the LEDs will be on the slightly red side. At 5000k, you won’t be noticing it much, so it’ll pretty much be a pure white starting at 200-300 lumens rated.
FWIW, I put some pictures in the OP to provide a color reference. I hope it gives people a decent idea what to expect the light to look like. Basically, scroll down a bit or search for “color ref”.
I love how this looks, especially with the frosted optics. Not sure whether to put my name down for a second one now, or wait until they’re available for general purpose.
When do I need to specify which emitter I want? Never done a group buy before
Be careful with the SST-20s, I’ve tried all the currently available 3000K, 4000K and 5000K and they all have a green tint to them at low to medium levels.
