Apex mod emitter?

[rjwpavo]

On the PT Apex mod, the general concensus appears to be using a SSC P4 USWOH or USVOH emitter. Would a U2SWOI work or is the voltage rating too high? What's the voltage range I should be looking for? Other options?

Thanks!

I've done this mod on 5 lamps, two were my own and three were for friends.

Three were done with the whiter color emitter and two were with the more yellow color.

I am not an incredibly picky guy and use these in caves which are quite monochromatic and the two different emitters are equivalent to me: neither seems brighter, more pleasant, or better to my eye.

When compared side by side, the color difference is noticeable, but if I only had one, I would be very happy with whichever one I had.

Sorry, but I don't know anything about your third option.

Try it, thats only .25V higher bin.

The U2 won't make any difference at all compared to the standard U bin. The variance from LED to LED even in the same batch, VF range will be greater than this usually imho. The LED will easily be able to handle a bit of voltage variance. If not LED modding would be tremendously harder for most of us.
