BLF LED Database - Collaboration Spreadsheet - Share latest news about where to buy LEDs

My thoughts:
yes, but only if they have have something others does not have.
When I uploaded the sheet I had added 1x XM-L from DX. It was mounted on cooper star. So quite unique. I think this database should show people what is out there. They can check out other threads about the vendors if they want to choose one vendor over another based on how they are rated by customers. I believe someone have noticed the cooper XM-L I linked to because it it now out of stock! :stuck_out_tongue: (it was not when I added it. Might be a coincident though).

I added some XM-L2s from lightmalls/kaidomain. So far only source for XM-L2 U2 on stars with free shipping (lets hope the bin is U2). Do i personally recommend them over some others stores? Do I trust the bin/tint info as much as some other stores. No. But this thread is a database.
It is nice to have options if some place is out of stock. Up until now, every store that have gotten XM-L2s in stock have been sold out right away. Especially the more popular bins/tints.

Thanks Scaru and RaceR!

The spreadsheet is indeed very useful. :slight_smile:

You have good list here. :nerd_face: I see that you will put some more on this spreadsheet.

I see that Relic38 found a nice source for XP-G2 on 16mm star. (4$ with shipping)
I added NW white version too (5$).

Not sure about BIN. I see there is a part of picture that says R5. But they have used same background for both emitters.
Description does not specify BIN…

Another very useful source for lumen info. Thanks to all!

Added a few more sources along with some other random info. :)

Added the MC-E, mainly because of the RGB output.

Great work!

What do you US guys have to pay for shipping on small orders from mauser?
Ill have to pay 33$. :Sp My option is to buy lots of emitters and qualify for free shipping, but that would trigger custom fee and taxes. :Sp

I payed 6.99 shipping for an order with 2 XM-L2s and a few transistors(non-flashlight stuff).

wow! No wonder some (/most?) if you guys prefer Mauser over Cutter…

Stock items or not… Mauser XM-L2s are now added! AND, I have fixed BIN info, so now its easy to compare. Much easier than looking at their webpage.

Not sure about the links. Are the links ok? Currently all have “No” in them (for Norway). I removed “NO” from one of them and it seemed to work.

Yep, the links load just fine.

Good!

Some nice stuff will be available in the future… I got my eyes on these three:

XM-L2 S6 3000k - 90 CRI!
XM-L2 T4 3500k - 80 CRI!
XM-L2 U2 5700k

Edit: They should be right around the corner, or coming in late this month.

Awesome, I’m about to make a (back)order for those XM-L2 s6 3000k cri90 LEDs.

Does any one know the tint of the XM-L2 t5 (4000k and 4500k)? As in are they more green or red? I’m not sure if the information isn’t listed on mouser or if I can’t find it.

Please stickie this. :D

EDIT: I sent request to IOS and Fasttech for following LEDs:

So far I feel that some leds are a bit overpriced from the chinese sites. XM-L2 close to 10$ at kaidomain/lightmalls, but a complete drop-in with same led is only 2 more. And a complete flashlight only 5$ more than the emitter. Dont get me wrong, im not complaining on their prices! Complete flashlight price seems like a bargain. But I cant help thinking that the emitter is priced a bit high.

Added XM-L2 from leddna. Best price on T6 0D. They have several star options.
Added XP-G2s from leddna. Several star options. Not the best price out there, but good. So far, only source listed for XP-G2 warm white.
I assume their “free shipping” is worldwide.

Added XM-L2 T6 A1 16/20mm from IOS. Their XM-L2 T6 0D 16/20mm are already sold out…
