Does anyone know of a place online to find high CRI (85+) LEDs? Looking for 1-ups and 3-ups mostly. Cree, luxeon, nichia, etc. Did a search and really couldn't find a whole lot. I will check the marketplace as well. I have a couple CNC machines and want to build some fixtures for in my house. I know I can go buy them but that's not fun.

Not too concerned about output currently. Something in the XR-E level is probably fine for now although I have been interested in trying out some arrays. It's been a whole since I've been on and tinkered with this stuff. What I always dreamed of doing is now available and I have the right equipment to do it so I want to move forward with it. Thanks

If you can go to the XP-G form factor, I've been getting Nichia 219Bs from Illumn.com. The 93CRI/4k are excellent. Be careful with any vendor, as there are many bins available of devices like this, many of which are NOT high CRI. Even Illumn has some misleading data.
