Osram Oslon Boost HX

There is still better binning, costing, and availability in the CW color range. So there’s that…

As far as exterior LED lighting in my area, a lot of it doesn’t stand up to flashlight standards, but it beats the crap out of the old metal halide, mercury vapor, and especially high pressure sodium lights.

The better solution for sleep issues (and light pollution, too) is paying attention to where the light is cast. Engineering your fixtures to direct all the light downard, to not reflect much upwards off surfaces, etc. will keep it out of both the sky and the bedroom windows. Until then, I strongly recommend blackout curtains.

Press releases for the Boost HM: Osram’s new Oslon Boost HM LED enables ultra-slim designs for headlights

It is also in stock at Mouser now. Who’s going to try? Not enough power for my application. https://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/OSRAM-Opto-Semiconductors/KW-CELMM1TG-S3SA-ebvFfcbB46-8F8H

Still can’t find the Boost HX anywhere.

Oh, great, even smaller pin point light sources to burn our retinas…

I wonder if these people even drive / ride in traffic at night…

Got my hands on some samples - very excited to see how these perform!
