Thanks for the heads up. I haven’t bought any LEDs for a long time but I think I’ll grab me a few of these.
Man does Mouser make searching for LEDs a pain… if you select XHP50D-HI series, which it’s supposed to belong to according to Mouser, and check “in stock” flag you get 0 search results. In the Cree datasheet they are clearly called XHP50.3 yet Mouser want to use some other series name which in turn doesn’t show this LED that they themselves have labeled as belonging to.
Indeed, my order that was in backorder just shipped, let’s hope they don’t have a trash tint.
Thanks. Ordered.
I put a XHP50.3 HD 4000K 90CRI from Digikey into my Skilhunt H300. My Opple says its a bit green, but thankfully my color-deficient eyes can’t tell :disappointed:
Gchart, that pic looks like a gen2, no? I thought dot three versions had a white silicone pour around the die.
Good eye. That picture was taken before the emitter swap. It was more of a “hurray, I got it open… and here’s what it looks like” picture. I have updated my post to note this.
The new LED does have the white around the die and is not covered in a phosphor pour.
XHP70.3 HI looks interesting.
XHP70.3 HIs have been listed at Mouser, several of them have a MOQ of 1 (none 90CRI 
), no lead time info.

The XHP70.3 Hi looks like perfect LED for ZL SC700d

I didn’t test higher because it’s a quick test without heatsink, anyway the tint is sunlike (0.0033), or slightly greener at lower current. Disappointing that it’s not closer to the BBL
The beam looks quite good even with SMO reflectors.
At 0.1A with KR1 SMO reflector :
spot : CCT = 4605K (Duv 0.0033)
Corona : CCT = 4191K (Duv 0.0067)
spill : CCT = 4383K (Duv 0.0032)
for the data thefreeman. Cree is not the new Nichia but it looks decent, 90CRI Cree’s that I have seen before were awfully green (that was before I had a spectrometer, so I can not back that up with duv numbers), this sounds better.
Added a quick spot, corona, spill measurement with SMO reflector
A bunch of them got added in order, availability announced for March.
Cutter has some stock of 3V XHP50.3 in 3B chromaticity.
The 4000K 80+ CRI looks interesting. But man, $12 a pop
I have these underway, any interest

Too bad we don’t know what the tint is like. If we know for sure it has rosy good tint, I would buy.
Have you ordered from this site before? They mention shipping to Russia & Ukraine, do you know if they ship to EU/UK?
Do I try a 70.3 in my FET L6?
