I was browsing info on SSC SunLike LED offering, when I stumbled upon the "sunlikelamp" website, that seem russian based, and their "configurable" bulbs:
E27/E14/GU10/GU5.3
Multiple reflectors/lens choices from 30° to 120°
6 to 50W
3200K / 4000K / 5000K / 5600K
They claim ultra high CRI for each CCT, measurement said to be performed by "lamptest.ru".
For instance @4000K it's Ra 99 / R9 97 / R12 98 / Rf 97...
So from the company name and those results I safely assume they are currently using thos SSC/Toshiba SunLike dies.
Judging only by the look of it, I think it fits our "DIY uncertified product" category we were discussing earlier. And this "boutique" products seems really interesting.
No need to be sad djozz, you know what they says: it is not the journey that is important, but the destination... Wait, do I have it reverse?
Anyway, I had a great chat with Adam, the man behind the "SunLikeLamp" russian boutique and he would be okay to send us a bulb for review. Calling out @maukka on that one: are you in to test?
There's an english version of the website if you hit the little UK flag on the top rightish.
Quick sum up:
a range from 6 to 50W, from 19$ to 100$
choices between SSC's SAWS0661A (more efficient and a bit more lumen) and SOL1306SXX (a bit better CRI) dies
you can also refer my previous posts for a bit more detailled specs
And yes, with 19$ you get what I expect to be an ultra high CRI 6W bulb, and what I really look forward to see tested here. For 21$ a 10W, 29$ a 12W, and so on up to 50W.
from 16$ for 6w model w/o shipping
Also I am going to start SunLike∞ model for 11€ for 8 real watts, because I think that use ordinary “fake white” LEDs it is a crime.
Also I am going to start manufacturing head flashlight with sunlike led (12w). There some enginering tasks, for example 35v on the LED.
Excuse me for english version of my web-site. I am alone for all types of jobs. About my lampman’s craft here - use translator
Seoul Semiconductor/Toshiba's SunLike range is clearly top of the class colorimetry wise, very close to Optisolis levels results I saw in the past. SOL3000K and SOL4000K are veeeery appealing.
From me =) They still do not have markets. They sell directly to manufactures. In this moment there is 2 manufactures on SOLs in the world/flat eaarth. Me and some huge sindicate in China. But you can not buy their poor products on ali or tao or etc.
I am so small, that I have no workers still =) But I am going…
I really am interested in the SunLike bulbs. I need to source a couple for testing in a fixture in my office and maybe one or 2 at home. One wish I have is for a truly high quality bulb to offer some kind of integration into home automation. The Lifx kinda suck on the network and the light is not that great and others leave much to be desired as well. The integration of an ESP8266 or zigbee chip that will talk to a Hue Hub would be amazing!
I’m getting a lot of confusion from sunlikelamp.com. I said yes to translation in Google chrome, selected the British flag, and no luck. Here’s a screenshot of what I see. It seems I was able to select both 3000k and 4000k at the same time, as well as the SOL and SAW models at the same time. See pic. And what is the meaning of the letter on the end of the model? For example, SunLike6, SunLike6D, SunLike10X, SunLike6 Bronse, SunLike12D, SunLike12S?
Let me explain it to you.
Yes, you can choose some mutually exclusive parameters. But also you can not choose anything, it is not neccesarry. Anyway I will send payment bill manually.
About letter on the end. What is it mean was in the rus language in price
Bronse - it was 2 years ago, I delete it, but in english version it can be as I see. I just fix it in 6w model. It mean how much leds will in lamp, for example in 12w led bulb can be 25w led, it will more effective.
6 - wattage. It is real, not fake like chinawatts
- bigger body
d - dimmable
x - eXperimental (tried to do cheaper)
s - switchable spectrums
for example on lamptest was 12D Titanium (platinum)
d - China sunlike (SOL)
D - Seoulsemico (SAW)
Now more leds is marked like 13D+ or 13D. Only on bodies.
this was 2 years ago. see model: 12D titan. it is w/o cover (diffuser) and with it
100lm per 1w from the line. 15% take off cover (diffuser)
