Great idea! Thank you! :thumbsup:

There is a minor error in the flux bin list of the Rebel M and N bin –
10.0 should be 100.0 .


Thanks again

GOOD work there !!! :thumbsup:
Thanx for doing this. I especially like the combined bin pic of all the LEDs of interest to us. Great reference.

Let me also thank you for corralling this information in one place. Now, if I was just up to the task of truly understanding it all … so much homework to do …

My question regards an update to my Pelican 2390 I'm considering. Not knowing the bin or current the LuxIII inside the Pelican is running at, how safe am I to assume replacing it with one of the P4s that Fred is offering (V, W, or X) will be worth my efforts?

While the process is intriguing, I want to notice an improvement at the end of the day.

Never mind, Fred set me straight, as I was confusing color bins with fulx bins. It's all alphabet soup from here ...

Di,

Thanks for this.

Open Request: Does anyone have data for Cree Q2/Q5 relating emitter current Vs efficiency?...or a formula I can utilise?

I am trying to find a 'sweet spot' to maximise output for a given heatsink....multiple emitters is not an issue.

TIA.......eng hoe

Would be nice to add the Luxeon K2 with TFFC White bin structure if possible.

Thanks again

Edit: Could it be that it is the same as Luxeon I, III, V (Current)?

I'll see if I can find some time this weekend and make some updates. I'm planning on taking the old Luxeon overlay plot off the charts since I don't think it's really needed anymore.

Another chart added. Additionally, all charts updated again with BBL and CCT lines.

Flux and Vf posted.

More to come later when I get some more "free" time.

This is a question, but I have a question on how to determine the 2-letter bin of an Ostar, out of its entire number.

LE UW E3B-PZQZ-4C8F is what's on the label from Digikey.
