found MT-G2 4000K at newestrend.com for 14 dollars. They claim the bin to be P0 (the highest MT-G2 bin), but according to the Cree datasheet the 4000K led does not come in P0. Would the 4000K be true?
It appears someone using the xml2 tab has turned off the filters and then sorted the header row into the data rows. If I get a chance, I will try to fix it but hopefully whoever did will because only they would know what else they may have changed.
Intl-outdoor has my all time favorite colour temp XM-L2 (~3700K) now in a even better tint : T4 6A2 80CRI.
I have 6A1 80CRI's in various lights, and they are great but just a bit too rosy, I kind of like that but I think that this 6A2 is just a bit more neutral tinted.
I really liked the 6A3 (T4 80+ CRI) that I picked up over a year ago. A very nice WW emitter. 6A2 should be really nice as well! 6A1 was too rosy for me, but I found it great for tint mixing when there was a need to boost pink/red.
I see IOS have gotten XM-L2 U2 3C in stock now. (And XP-L V6 3D, in case anyone missed it when Hank announced it).
The spreadsheet is and have been a mess most of this year. Too much work for me to keep up to date and fix. I still think its nice to have this thread for simple updates on where to buy certain emitters and such.
Added XP-L HI options
Updated Nichia 219b (they now come in a V1 variant with R9050 chromaticity/93 typical CRI rather than the older R85 chromaticity/92 typical CRI)
Added them (XP-L's from IS) to the spreadsheet. Got mine in like 2 days. They must have them in stock here in the USA.

Not sure if its worth the gamble on the one from newstrend. Barely cheaper than from IOS, and who knows what you will get.
Anyone asked IOS about CRI on their 4000K MT-G2?
Standard CRI, or 80 CRI??

Anyone besides me using either regular amber or PC amber?
If so I’ll add the sources I know, but I don’t know much.

I added the XHP section awhile ago if you haven't seen it yet.
Just added the XHP70 5000k N4 bin 3C tint from Cutter Electronics to the data base.

XM-L2 U4 needs to be added.
Which gets really boring. – Tuomas Holopainen, 2015
A lot of offers from intl. outdoor are missing. Added triple Nichia, feel free to add XP-L and other missing LEDs.
Finally a XP-E2 in neutral available and in R4 bin!, intl-outdoor has a R4 3C, on 16 and 20mm Noctigon.
(I'm not so much into updating the database, but I did want to mention it here)
