[1900k edition is in!] WTS: 1900k-5800k 5mm LED 95+ CRI

Boy, these are way too warm for me but thanks for offering them!

If you want 5600k and you live in the States. This guy right here has it.

Got my samples. Direct driven, i.e. no electronics. The PCB can be taken out by pushing the LED. It just falls apart. Piece of cake to replace the LED, but maybe not worth it. Body must be some kind of zinc alloy.

The Mateminco BL-1 is much nicer. I ordered the copper type, and it appears to actually be made from copper! Hope I can take it apart.

Nitecore Tube would be suitable for this led?

I don’t think so. The LED in Tube is most likely driven at 150ma. Unless you find the way to cut the current in half, I don’t think think this LED will survive.

Do you ship to the UK? If so, what would be the cost of one pack of 50 shipped?
Thanks

Thank you for letting us know. Mine are on the way, we’ll see.

I’ll let you know for sure tomorrow :sunglasses:

I put one in a Tube today (sorry e1000, it was not to beat you to the mod, I had precisely one hour this weekend to do stuff in my grand workshop behind the cupboard, that hour was now and this little project fitted right in).

Tube with stock led, full battery, at 30 seconds:
109 mA, 47 lumen, 78CRI, 7300K duv –0.0152
Tube with rngwn led, full battery, at 30 seconds:
84 mA, 24 lumen, 96CRI, 3200K duv –0,0042

Bit lousy pic not doing justice to the great tint:

Yes, PM me.

No worries djozz! Now I know it’ll work!

I got them. Under UV light it has red/yellowish hue like the 5600k Yuji unlike 3200k Yuji.

Your so right, I almost forgot there’s a nice Nitecore TUBE having 5mm LED.
I did the same. Noticably less light, significantly more pleasant.
Mod easier than I thought.

Nice modding.

I was hesitant to buy one of the tube knock-off worrying it will kill the LEDs. Might want to try and mod one.

Thank you! :innocent:

Nitecore Tube modded. Really happy with it! Thanks again rngwn!

Thanks for that.

Is the Tube mod straight fiorward,or is there something to be carefull about? Ordered one.

No mod that I have ever done was straightforward, there’s always something unexpected that has to be taken care of (i.e. the tiny screws were tight, I had to use a very well fitting screwdriver to not screw them up). But if you have dome some modding before and do the disassemby and assembly a bit gentle (it is tiny inside), there are no big problems.
