Luminus SST-70, a sample tested

Man I get some excited every time I see these emitter test post from you or Maukka! This looks promising. Hopefully it performs better than the XHP50.2.

Great! A serious competition to S2WP? Please Luminus bring us higher CRI version. :slight_smile:

I would not mind testing a S2WP, do you have a link where I can buy them?

Wow! Yeah, hi cri is my dream. 3V in a bit warmer colorwould be also nice

thanks for the test!

Would love to see this in an EC01. Domeless would be even better. Now hurry up Luminus and make a 3V version.

Ask Neal from Nealsgadgets. He could probably get you one.

good led

Djozz, any chance to get raw data behind the chart?

Thanks, that beam looks really nice! How was the tint (duv) on yours? I take it that you’re not going to sacrifice that in a dedoming experiment? :slight_smile:

Thanks for the testing djozz.
I wonder how it dedomes also but its always a risk.

Looks like a huge quad reflector. Would you mind sharing some build tidbits?

Thanks.

Looks like TN40S or Jetbeam T6

Another leaked photo from haikelite.

With a feeler gauge set plus dremel type multitool with dedicated locator accessory, dedoming can be made easy (check this).

Of course, it is first required to know how low can you go. ;-)

pearlriver, it would be nice if you could edit your previous posts' images (#9, #15) and set their relative width to 100% max. Attach a {width:100%} string between the first exclamation mark and the image url:

I never was very good in dedoming a SST-40 so the chances would not be good, and I would not have a suitable host for the dedomed SST-70 anyway (you want 6V 6A and a big smooth reflector for a proper dedomed SST-70 build).

The tint is plain cool white, seems no different than the cool white SST-40 tint, but if you measure it, it is quite a bit above the BBL. Here’s the center of the hotspot from a S2+ reflector, with the led at 1A (CRI=67.3,R9=–40)

Sure. The numbers are convenient to have but also they suggest an accuracy that is not there. That is why I usually just post charts, it removes the false preciseness from the numbers.

Yeah, looks very similar. On such high color temps I don’t find some green so objectionable, even though +0.006 is quite a lot. As is, I probably wouldn’t find any practical uses for the emitter though.

Dedoming it would likely fix the high Duv, doesn't it?
