More New Cree Goodness coming....

Has anybody found 50.3 HI in 3 volt yet?

According to the datasheet it doesn’t exist.

There is a graph showing 3V XHP 50.3 HI (Page 23), but no retailer seems to have it yet. Once it comes out, I’m going to bug Mateminco to put four of them in a MT04. This would be my ultimate night walk light.

It sounds more probable to me that they forgot that there is no 3V HI when copy pasting the chromacity shift graphs (they’re identical), than forgetting to list the 3V HI models.

Yes. I have one working on 120v. Just takes longer than 20 seconds as advertised.

I didn’t know there was an XHP-70.3 HI :sunglasses:

Correllux and Story,

Thanks for your comments on the reflowing plate(s). Ive been heating a plate of aluminum over a glass top stove for my reflow plate and this will simplify life. Ordered…

That is interesting.

Looks like Digikey has the domed 70.3s (XHP70D-00) in stock, including 90 CRI versions. Would be interesting to see some tests of those.

No sign of the XHP70.3 HI (XHP70D-H0) anywhere, though. Definitely looking forward to the 90 CRI versions of that one. Mouser claims to have an ETA of April 8, but no idea how accurate that is.

Hey guys. Has anyone been able to find out if we will have different options with xhp50.3 hi 3v? I mean 80+ cri/warm light. I met information that it only works in the 6 volt version. Hope this is a mistake.

Interested in this too.

Proper razor dedoming of an HD version will create the same thing, so you have all of the options available if you look at it that way.

A few high CRI 5000k XHP 70.3 HI in-stock at cutter

Sweet!

It'll be nice when something like these make their way into mass-produced flashlights.

How does this compare to GT-FC40?

The 70.3 HI should be able to handle more current. They will probably be close in performance.

I bet that will be pretty green based on the EasyWhite binning.

Kaidomain has XHP-70.3 HI in 3000, 4000, 5000 and 6500k temperatures, what do you all think about the bins?

They seem great :slight_smile:

You’re probably correct. The bin code is 50G x=0.3447 y= 0.3553 duv looks to be slightly negative. But it’s a 3 step ellipse so a lot of variation is possible there. I have 8 of them on the way so I’ll let you know.
