LatticePower LEDs?

I just read the new Acebeam L35 description here: https://www.acebeam.com/l35

You can choose between the CREE XHP70.2 and the LatticePower P70

At first I thought they were using the Lattic Bright fake LEDs, but it seems like these are different. Or did lattice bright actually become good at making LEDs and changed their name?

I believe LatticeBright is Jianxi LatticePower Semiconductor Corporation.
I also have http://www.latticepower.com in my browser history but neither it nor latticebright website load for me today…

When did CREE become good at making LEDs? Heavy dual tint separation (CREE special feature), greenish and bluish LEDs, low CRI, easily what to expect from XHP70.
Some of the worst high CRI LEDs they used to have in the past.
CREE also sold their LED business recently and they had subcontracted other less known manufacturers to make some of their LEDs in the past.

lol @ MoreLumens.

I think that's a flashoholic syndrom. They point the flashlight at a white wall and start complaining about at even a slightly green hue :)

I wonder if LatticePower is becoming a bigger player in the flashlight industry. Acebeam wouldn't like to 'hurt' their reputation by choosing a subpar LED manufacturer. I'm not talking about the stuff we tend care about, like how close the LED is to the BBL, Tint etc, but the size/professionalism of the LED manufacturer.

I agree, I hope it might be a case of ‘watch this space’ with LP.I would welcome another player in LED choices.

That is interesting. The perfect flashlight is the one you don't have yet...

That's why you are here :D

The domeless 7070 led looks good. Would save slicing and dicing a 70.2 for sure!

Hi

I’m new here and would just like to add some input to the LED within the Acebeam L35 LatticePower P70, I just received from Amazon.

When looking inside the lens I reads XHP 70.

So not sure if its helpful?

I would gladly post pics if need be

Hey, welcome to BLF!

That’s to be expected, many MCPCB’s (the board the LED is mounted on) are compatible with several different LEDs. Frequently the manufacturer will label as being for a certain LED, but knowing that other LEDs will be compatible with it. In the case of XHP70, it’s a 7070 (70mm x 70mm) footprint, and a few other LEDs work on the same board, such as the LatticePower P70.

What are your thoughts on the LatticePower P70 in your L35? How’s the beam, tint, etc?

Hi, thanks for the welcome :slight_smile:

Its daytime here in Cape Town atm.

I’m going to give the L35 a crack at our local field when its dark, there is a nice 410m stretch of field which would be a nice test for throw( I expect it to perform wonderfully ).

Local field

This is my first powerful torch, and compared to my other home one, it packs quite the punch.

at about 5cm from the lens, my hand warms up instantly on turbo press.

The tint is pure white against my white board, however the mix of sunlight obscures this observation slightly and should be done at night to convey a honest report.

Quality and feel are exceptional.

As for the beam shot, what would you recommend for camera settings, I have a DSLR which I use for this.

Kind regards

I took the liberty of taking it apart.

Not sure it would work very well at 410m.

Lol okay ¯\

I would be very interested in seeing a picture of the beams of those two lights at that distance. I am interested in their capabilities. I would encourage you to do it! LOL. Best regards.

Hi

Sure, I will give it a go :slight_smile:

Unfortunately, I only have the P70 version and not both, this is my first powerful torch, probably my last too :slight_smile:

So I will see what I can capture and revert back
