New XP-L High Intensity Emitter

Ooooo, please post the results and maybe a beamshot or two after. I love XinTD C8s, cant wait to see what it does with that in it.

Dale’s wife hasn’t seen that bill, one of the reasons I got the cheaper M34 then swapped emitters, to hide the total cost a bit. :bigsmile:

In the Meteor, it does 57.5Kcd. This is of course with a dozen of em. Not sure how one would act in a reflectored light.

They sure are slick looking, with the neat uniform covering of silicone that protects the bond wires. Like that. Like it a lot. The 12 I got were in a tape, made for these emitters. looked pretty awesome, even if the bill for em is slightly less exciting.

I’d have guessed the bill for them is very exciting, just not in a good way! :open_mouth:

I heard EagleTac is releasing some updated lights with XPL HD.

Nope it is the HI not HD, they got some "very limited quantity" as they say (XP-L HI V2). In these days such claims are redundant, quickly others will have the same LED for sale, Olight already uses it.

Thanks for correcting me, HikeLite. I too agree there will soon be plenty lights with this new emitter. It is just not soon enough for me. :smiley:

Is this new XP-L with no dome considered to be an HI or H1? My paperwork on the 12 I got says H1… H One, not H “Eye”

Does anyone know what the proper terminology is? It’s not actually de-domed, but maybe domeless? Flat? Slim? Toned? :wink:

Edit: Cree’s Official Word

XLamp XP-L High Intensity
Industry’s First High-Intensity LED

The XLamp® XP-L High-Intensity LED is the first of Cree’s new class of High-Intensity LEDs optimized to deliver maximum candela through secondary optics. The XP-L High-Intensity LED is the first single-die LED to deliver over 100,000 cd in a 4-degree beam with a 50-mm diameter optic at 10 W. Built on Cree’s breakthrough SC5 Technology™ Platform, the XP-L High-Intensity LED delivers more than double the candelas of the industry’s previous highest-performing single-die XP-L LED through the same optic. The new high-intensity LED offers a drop-in ready upgrade for XP-based luminaire designs, enabling manufacturers to achieve higher luminous intensity with minimal redesign to accelerate time to market.

Edit II: They are calling the High Density variant the XP-L HD and this domeless High Intensity variant the HI, for some reason the code reads H1

this is what I bought from Mouser…

Yeah Cree says “High Intensity” and many of us have been abbreviating it “HI” ourselves. All of the offical product numbers that I have seen have the H in it though.

XP-L High Density (the XP-L that used to be called only XP-L and it has a dome with 4 vertical cuts on the sides)

XP-L High Intensity (the new flat domeless XP-L emitter)

XPLAWT-H1-0000-000BU50E2

H means High Intensity

If it would be 0 instead of H then it would be High Density

BTW: these are official specifications from the datasheets. Also that code is an "Order Code" and it's for a U5 bin, from the E2 group (3B 3C 3A 3D), it is not an actually "Bin Code" where you know the exact tint.


I’m not flat! Just a late bloomer!

If you must, I’d prefer slim.

Good to know, H1 it is.

Again that H1 is only for the Order Code (which Mouser's special way of not telling you exact what tint you get), what all other sellers will have is a Bin Code not and Order Code, there will be no H1, only a H since that is an internal code.

H = High Intensity, 0 = High Density.

Whats H0 then?

XPLAWT-H0-0000-000BV20E1

Part of Xmas

0H!

Xpl white- high intensity, the 0 is an internal code, as is the 0000-000.
The B is 70 cri Min, V2 is luminous flux group and the last 3 are the chromaticity group

Thanks itsonlyme. Then what does the H before the 0 represent?

What matters is the “H” in “XPLAWT-H”…

XPLAWT-H…. is HI
XPLAWT-0…. is HD

The B is for Bodacious and when you see HS together it’s for HolySh#t!

In other Cree LED’s (don’t remember which data sheet I saw it on) the 0 or 1 in that position means either ‘standard’ or ‘non standard’ order qty. But for all intents and purposes that we should be concerned about, it is meaningless.
