emitter test: Nichia 219B V1 4000K 93CRI

Thanks for the testing djozz!

Can you possibly add to your review that these 4000K are binned D200.
I believe your early 4500K(5000K) were binned D220 and your 219C binned D280.

Here is Nichia binning chart

Well… Not the results I was hoping for.

By your wording, have you heard that Nichia is indeed doing a 90+ cri 219c? Last I heard that was scrubbed

Thanks THE_dAY for the bin table, I added the bins to the OP.

@pilotdog68: I have no news about a 90CRI 219C, I just hope they will dio them sometime.

Thanks a lot for this test, Djozz.

The highest spec’ed R9050 B-V1 is D240, so that one should sit in between the B-V1 and C you’ve tested, output-wise. But then, first you’d have to find some…

EDIT: Guys, those Jaxman lights at fasttech and their aliexpress store appear to be NVSx219B-V1 R9050 sw40/sw57. D220 for the sw57.

Thanks djozz.

I did not know that Fasttech carried the Jaxman lights now (was my suggestion in their thread), that is good news! I will order an E2 :-)

Nice review.
Thanks.

This LED is definitely my favourite tint even if it’s not as efficient as a 219C.

I think I can confirm that the emitters in those Jaxman lights are NVSx219B-V1, indeed. They sent me a few LEDs. I thought I’d have to mount and test them for low Vf to confirm it, but a nice and clever member of TLF found a way to tell apart bare 219B’s and 219B-V1’s (thanks again Megalodon). Should I spoil it or give you guys some time to find out for yourselves?

Spoil it, spoil it!

I feel challenged here, but I'm not at home to check them, aaarrrgghh! .

There are small differences in the footprints.

Interesting. I guess that’s a good way to tell a 219B from a V1

Exactly, PD. Should also work when emitters are mounted already.

Chouster, thanks for sharing the helpful tip!

Of course, with pleasure if someone finds it useful.

I’m pretty sure I’ve got a bunch of nichia B around for some time. I’m going to dig them up and have a look.

Is there anyone who could build a copper p60 drop in with a 219b v1 93 cri 4000k ?.
Thanks.
For a solarforce l2d.

I may be missing something here, but what is the difference between the B V1 and 219C, other than the colored pads?

Thank you for all your time testing LEDs djozz!
