Osram Oslon Boost HX

The lowest brightness bin is unlikely to beat KW CSLPM1.TG available from L4P.

Any updates or tests here?

It's still vaporled

Is there an expected delivery date on these?

Fun fact:
Osram specs the height of White Flat (both 1 and 2 mm²) as 0.73+–0.07mm.
Boost HX is 0.732+–0.035mm. Halved tolerance?

It's been a year, Osram seems to be really taking its time with this LED.

No, a different trainee wrote the datasheet :)

Another distributor lists Boost HX on their site…MOQ is 4000 and they have no stock.

LED4Power has them in single quantities.

Probably for about five minutes after this comment goes live. I’m half tempted to buy one, but I’d put it in my C8, take some pictures, hate the backscatter from the high CCT, and put the SST-20 back in.

These are Boost HL, not Boost HX. 1mm² die instead of 2mm². Better throw but only marginally for not much more than half output.

Ahh, so it is. I didn’t notice the P vs N in the part number.

Now Vinh has them as well:

Ah! So they actually exist now. :smiley:

We need that :+1:

I think Led4Power has them, but his shop is closed until next year iirc

L4P had the Oslon Boost HL notnthe Boost HX.

I’m aware. I believe he has the HX now, after his store closed this year, based on the fact he offered it as a prize in the Old Lumens contest

Is the boost HX just a 4040 version of CSLPM1.TG?

Aka culpm1.tg

Yes. But considering that thermals seriously limit KW CSLPM1.TG - this is likely a significant upgrade.”

Anyone know where to get them? Im aware the cslnm1 and cslpm1 cant take direct drive but anyone think this one will?

Probably still a bad idea.
