Sure its easy! all you need is six of them, a good Modded JB SRK driver, and a 6-XM-L SRK host.

> If you have a bag full of Nichia 219B’s kicking around, then swap out the XM-Ls in a SRK 6-XM-L (or more) host for the Nichia 219Bs, (preferably on Noctagons) toss in a good modded JB SRK driver or original SRK three-torrid driver, and voila… A High CRI flooder SkyRay King for walking the dog or alligator.

I forgot to post this one since i had done this mod back in June, but out of the dozen or so different SRKs i have this one now gets the most field use.

Nice. What centering piece did you use to center all the LED’s inside the reflector?

3

One or 2 outside beamshots plz :smiley:

You got me with that headline. Wasn’t sure what I was clicking into! ha!

Slick mod! I agree we need beam shots! That thing is the 219Beast! :slight_smile:

Nice mod! Wish I had Nichias to improve my CW SRK.

Nichia 219B high cri is love , the best tint i have ever seen was the XM-L2 4C but when i saw the Nichia 219B high cri in real life i changed my opinion a bit

man i cant wait for the new Nichia 219 C high cri

7

:sad: there's rumour that the high CRI 219C might not be produced at all :sad:

Beams shots will come soon. I will do comparisons to all my other different beercan-sized lights.

9

I didn’t say how many in the headline though :bigsmile:
Beam shots hopfully soon.

they were a pack of 10 XP-G spacers i believe i found on AliExpress.

or just buy one, over 4000 lumens!

I seen that Eagletack with 12-219B’s, but i’m guessing that light cost 8 times more than my “Budget” build. :stuck_out_tongue:

13

Nice build! If nichia would get around to making something a bit brighter than the 219 I’d be very tempted to copy that. When I first saw yours I was considering doing something similar, but I can’t bring myself to spend more money on my 6x srk for half the lumens.

14

Even though the 6-SRK now probally has a lower output than a good modded hard-drive 3-XM-L2 SRK, but drive the Nichias well and they can still give out a good amount of light when many are used in this case. I wish Nichia would build an XM-L2 sized High-CRI 219 capable of 1200+ Lumens. (maybe call it a 319. *hints to Nichia-

15

$230. Sometimes you have pay for pudding :bigsmile:

16

No doubt 2000 is more than enough, that’s all my first srk had and it totally blew me away. I’d also like to see some beamshots if you get a chance.
I’d be the first in line for a 319 if it was reasonably priced. Are you listening Nichia?

17

YES NICHIA! LISTEN TO US! we need a new Nichia 319-Series with 1200 plus lumens, with the same foot-print die as the Cree XM-L2, and 92+ CRI.

18

Translate your message in Japanese :stuck_out_tongue:

Imagine a Nichia led in the size of 35*35 package with a circle die that can give 92 high CRI 1200 lumens and flat like the XPL-HI :smiley: :evil:

Oooo! Excited for pics!!
