Emitters for dummies

[Brokenarrow]

Unable to find a good explanation of the various emitter options for Hank lights.
Being new to the hobby I have no idea other than the SSt20 which I have in a firefly. Looking for brightness not really concerned about about color as I use them for general farm/outdoor use.

Which particular model are you considering?

I'm not an expert, so I might be a bit off on these.

So removing all the color LED options, there are a few types left:

E21A and 219BT are usually high CRI emitters, might be on the warmer side with lower efficiency.

519A is the new kid in town with high CRI and better efficiency than 219BT.

SST20 I'm not too familiar with, but I think they're similar to the 219BT, possibly better efficiency, but tint can be a crap shoot.

W1 and W2 are cool white thrower emitters, W1 being more throwy.

Found this, been posted before I'm pretty sure, pretty good starting point without to much tech talk.
