Best binned emitters....

[dpled]

What are the most sought after bin codes...Give me a top 3 list! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/str.gif

 

[Kiessling]

LuxIII:
T-bin with a J-flux and the color bin of your liking

LuxV:
W-bin with a T-flux
if you really want the jack-pot: X-bin

EDIT because of major stupidity /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif : replace all the "-flux" with "Vin"
I'll leave the BS in this post as a reminder ... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/icon15.gif

"J" flux, Bernie? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Sounds like a difference of opinion tvodrd. Whats your take on the subject?

dpled the j is the forward voltage not the flux. it was just a confusion

I just read about bin codes and seen that. Thanks knifebright./ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink2.gif Still learning and alot to learn! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/Christo_pull_hair.gif

 

[Kiessling]

/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/icon15.gif Well, seems I made a little mistake here and Larry exposed it mercilessly /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Sorry for the confusio dpled ! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink2.gif knifebright corrected it.

Reminds me of the following I usually like to show to others ... and now I can swallow it myself /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif :

I realy don't know, my wife bought me 25 Pcs TWOK,
and she bought me 35 pcs of TWOJ's, and 100 Pcs of TWOL
Stars, and 30 Pcs Of Nice, TX1J's

Umm, may I ask what you plan to do with that many LEDs? I can't imagine what that would cost. Was this a Christmas gift? Are both of you flasholohics?

Forget about the leds. I'd like to find a wife like Torch_boy's.

Luxeon I
Unobtainable : R3H or RxxH (very few exist, no more are made since the introduction of the Luxeon III)
Realistic : QxxH

Luxeon III
Unobtainable : UxxH (very few exist)
Realistic : TxxH

Luxeon V portable
Unobtainable : X3T (few exist, no more are made)
Realistic : WxxS (T Vf is a bit more likely)

The direct-drive fanatics can file their complaints about my low-Vf selections at their nearest roundfile; low Vf + high flux == super efficiency.

 

[tvodrd]

Very well summed-up, Idle!

TWOJ's have been showing up in quantity lately, but I am curious as to "no more are made" for the Lux V portable? Have they ceased manufacture of LuxV's or were the X3T's just a fluke like the few Lux III U's? (some of which I hear, failed to meet expectations.)

Standby there sailor, this Californian smells a salted claim.....

Noone has seen an X-bin 5W portable with the current binning structure; they all feature the bin structure of 1-2 years ago. The best theory I've heard also supports the lack of R-bin Lux Is - premium dies are going into Lux IIIs.

It's possible that Lumileds turns out these obscene bins and keeps them as golden samples to improve their processes; or perhaps they sell them at a premium to customers; or maybe they just diappear into Future's distribution network, destined for volume customers willing to pay a premium.

Personally, I suspect that the release of X-bin 5W emitters was in error. U-bin 3W emitters seem to have been a case of mislabeling, since the modder that had them reported substantially better results from some high-performing T-bins. R-bin 1W emitters were a reality - they seem to be the most numerous "unobtanium" bins.

 

[3rd_shift]

Looks like the best, easily available bins at this date and time are:

5 watt-VV1T from member photonfanatic in the bst lights forum.

3 watt-TWOJ again from photonfanatic if you want bare osinkable, or hotlipsable bare emitters.
Klaus has the star version TWOJ for your Nuwai q3's

1 watt-QWOH from member Lambda.
This is a premium 1 watt to say the least.

 

[idleprocess]

W-bin 5W emitters turn up in B/S/T & Group buys from time to time.

I snagged a TxxH 3W emitter not too long ago on B/S/T from... I forget. It seemed like something I wasn't going to see again - I need to do something useful with it.

 

[3rd_shift]

Let me know, I may think of something.
A georges80 nflex, a fivemega 8aa-2d, this could get fun. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif
