Luxeon T emitters premounted on SinkPAD boards? These seem to be largely flying under the radar here and over at the other place.
Blurb from Philips:
“With Freedom from Binning and leading performance, LUXEON T emitters allow system optimization by blending the perfect combination of high efficacy and low system cost. With tight Correlated Color Temperature (CCT) control, LUXEON T ensures consistency in system color point.”

What is the CRI of these emitters? Are you going to stock any 90CRI?

Standard CRI, current release will not have 90 CRI yet.
We've looked into other brands like Fenix and Sunwayman, the market already seems saturated enough and China loves to undercut us :P
Gentleman's agreement with other retailers ;)
We're always looking into other emitters to bring to market. Unfortunately casting such a wide net requires major capital. With our currently lukewarm at best components sales, we decided to hit the relatively more mass market XML2 on direct thermal first before branching out.
I placed an order with IS this past Sunday, and it arrived today. That’s like 3 days elapsed, from west to east coast, since the order was on a Sunday.
I don’t know how you do it, but you guys must some kind of hyper-jet shipping or something :)! And, this is not the 1st time either.
Contrast to another place I order from, just up north from where I am (well, about 200 miles), which typically (except for my last order) takes about 5 days.
The components are hard to find for these unfortunately :(
Hi ohaya,
Thanks for the compliment! However, we can't take credit for the shipping speeds of the USPS, that speed is completely their doing. We can, however, take credit for processing orders quickly, and accurately reporting that packages are ready for deployment to the post office instead of sitting around for 2-3 days. (Yes we often do package orders Friday night and send them out before the USPS closes Saturday morning.)
Regardless of flashlight, cost, manufacturer or vintage, if you know of any 17-22mm drivers that boost XML properly at 3A down to 3V on single 4.2V lithium cell, please post your knowledge to this thread.
