I didn't want to make a clickbait thread title, so my real intention of this thread is that I haven't noticed any huge changes in LED technology since about 2015. It seemed like things were progressing so fast from 2005 to 2015, then things just kinda dropped off. What is going on these days? I know about HCRI LED's that also existed back in 2015, and LED's oriented towards spill and throw. The 5mm LED has come up a bit in the past few years as being a far more viable light source than it was ever originally intended to be (an indicator light). What's the deal? It seems like things have really slowed down the past five years. I'm not a huge LED guy, though I do like high quality HCRI warmer tinted LED lights. I'm partial to 3400-3500K emitters. I'm more an incan/HID guy, so I'd like to do more listening to posts than talking.
