I dont see the tint specified, where did you read it was 1A?
Usually when you order a reel of LEDs from Cree, you order from a range of tints, and you dont know the exact tint you get until you receive the LEDs. It is cheaper to order from a wide tint range, and more expensive to order from a narrower tint range. Me being a tint snob myself, I want to know the exact tint before ordering…
don't forget BLF15 for 15% off :) I just bought some optics and an XP-L V6 3A on a sinkpad from them, all came to $8.18 inc. a dollar shipping. Actually just went there for the optics as I'm fed up with the agonisingly slow shipping Fasttech.
Have you previously dedomed XP-L 1A’s? What approximate tint did you get after the dedome? I’m looking for something not warmer than a 2B or 2C after dedome and wonder if this might be obtainable with the XP-L
Gasoline. I hung the star upside down in it and waited for the dome to fall off. It took about 15 hours. I’m not sure why it took longer for me than other people, maybe too much ethanol in the gas?
This is interesting, so you say that the XP-L’s goes 2-3 steps to the right only? i was under the impression that the XM-L2 goes often 3-4 steps to the right + 1 up on the ansi white chart………hmm i may have to rethink my quad XP-L with tint mixing and dedoming build, i based that inadvertently on XM-L2 “rules”
And if the XP-L goes more just right and not so much up maybe a 3D will look nice dedomed? i kind of like warm tints but i had previously thought it would go to much yellow, but it may end up a 4S or 5A2………that sounds very very interesting
I am glad i took notice on this before i placed the large (for me ;)) xp-l order i have been planning, thanks
