*LIST* of LED flashlights WARM/NEUTRAL/~4000K

Emitter sources I have found in my search for neutral bins:

LED Supply
Cree (75L/W = P4?) stars 3700-5000k (Neutral) for $.8.49 ea
ledsupply.com/creexre-nw.php
Cree Warm White (70L/W) 2600-3700K stars for $8.49 ea
ledsupply.com/creexre-ww.php

Digikey has XR-E and MC-E emitters spec'd at 4000k & 3150k(?)
XR-E are around $8 ea
MC-E are around $31 ea in low quantites

Arrownac.com has Neutral & Warm Cree in P4 by CCT

Mouser.com has Seoul P4 stars & emitters in S2 bin (60L/watt) Neutral high CRI
I have a couple of these I have not used yet.
 
Added!

Now how about a source for Nichia 083 High-CRI? :devil:

I think that Nichia typically supplies LED's to manufacturers. While there are sources for Nichia 083 leds, the only ones I've heard of with High CRI are the ones from McGizmo.

I think that any source for the Nichia 083 High CRI's, would have to be originated from McGizmo.
 
Unfortunately I don't have specific information but in reference to the INOVA T-series I do not know if they meet the criteria.Of the 5 T-series MP lights(all current models)that I have I consider three to be quite warm.
That would be both of my T-1s and one of the T-2s.The T-5 is less warm and the other T-2 is much more neutral.None of the INOVAs are as warm as the Malfoff WL so they must be a little higher on the color temperature scale.Also there is no way to specify tint and some lights like my second T-2 are neutral.I am very happy with my INOVA T-series lights but the CREEs(judging from my M60WL)are noteably warmer.
 
Fenix has a history of selling special bin (first Q2, then Q5 special) versions, so I hope they will do so soon with warm and/or neutral tint bins as special versions. This LD01 version seems to say they will. They have one light sold only as warm tint, so maybe they will base the decision on the success of that light. I hope they have not grown too large to handle the special bin runs.
 
Plus 1 for that.
I just ordered a Fenix TK20 and LD01 (Q5). I would order an LD20 and LD10 if they came in a warm led.
 
Added McGizmo!

P.S. I ordered the DX drop-in, and within a week or so it shipped.
 
I'm confused at what DigiKey is offering. How do you know what bin or tint you are getting? Is it just a lottery?

I really need a bare Q3 5A for a mod... Not sure if that is what DigiKey is offering here:
http://search.digikey.com/scripts/DkSearch/dksus.dll?Detail&name=XREWHT-L1-R250-008E7CT-ND

Does anybody have any info (or a spare Q3 5A XR-E to sell)?

You can look up the last digits in the digikey part number in the Cree binning datasheet they link to. In this case 008E7 leads you to P3 flux bin, 7A, B, C or D tint bin.

00BE5 on the datasheet gives you a Q3 flux bin, 4000 Color Temp (5A-5D tint). Using just the Color temp and XR-E as my filters I show the only flux bin they have in stock at that temp being P4.
 
I think that Henry is using the Seoul P4's exclusively now. His warm white must be the new warm white Seoul P4. As an aside, I would bet that Henry has found some V bin P4 Seouls for his Ra Clicky's. This would up the output without raising current to the LED. Just thinking out loud.

Thanks for the info... I'm going crazy looking for a single Q3 5A emitter!

He uses Osram GDP and the Seoul P4. Based on some beam shots and first hand user comments it seems to indicate the U2 bin.
The warm white SSC P4 ain't new, it's new to CPF, it was there but we never cared enough to look. The V-bin is also not available at the moment, very few prototypes made it out. There's no way the V-bin is at production quantities.

I understood that he was dropping the Osram GDP. I was thinking V bin P4 because the output of the Ra's is going up and Henry does not like high amps to LED. The current GatLights are using the V bin P4's and there is no reason that Henry could not access them, if not now, then in the future.

Received this P60 host today, it's FANTASTIC! Great reflector finish, centered emitter, solidly made. Output is brighter than the Cree bin P4 it replaced in the Huntlight FT01 host.
 
I received the Fenix TK20 a few days ago. It has a very nice buttery colored tint. Its very comfortable on the eyes. I really wish Fenix incorporates this warm LED into their other lights.
