Yaa i finally got a Warm white Led lantern
I got some Warm-White Cree XR-E emitters from LED Supply last week, and they looked much warmer than our Favourlight WW lanterns. Favourlight WW is about equivalent to neutral white bin of the Cree emitter. So I decided to mod one of my Favourlight's with the XR-E emitter I got. There was... -
Favourlight LTC-1613AA Locator LED Mod
