New Nichia LED 4 Times Brighter

[laserblue]

44 Candelas at 20mA thats great. the best 5mm led i got here is only 5000 mcd

Probably, since the E0 has better regulation than the Arc CS. The Arc starts out brighter, but the E0 is brighter for most of the runtime. I suspect that it won't be longer than a few more months before they upgrade to a DS or better. Personally, my LOD Q4 has already spoiled me and I probably won't buy an upgraded E0.

Every-time I'm about to take the leap and get a LOD Q4, I come to my senses just thinking about having to scroll through all those modes just to get to low changes my mind. If it would just remember the "low" mode, I would be all over the LOD Q4.

I can't wait to someone mods an EO with a DS LED and post some beam shots.

On the LOD-CE Q4 you start on medium, twist off, twist on and you're in low. Only 1 mode to skip over.

Yeah, that makes a lot more sense than the memory modes on my Jetbeam and Rexlight. I wished that the LOD started out in low though, but it's is a whole lot better than I first thought.

I can get some of these if there is any interest

Tell me more.

There is interest. I would like 10-20 if you can get decent bins.

Others have also expressed interest.

I have several 000 pcs kicking around here of the V bin, min 22000mcd, max 31000 mcd
spectacular led

min 100 pcs at USD0.44 ea

How do these compare to the Nichia DS LEDs that Arc is putting in their new AAA lights?

*Probably* the same. I don't know if Nichia is even shipping any W bins (31000-44000mcd) yet.

 

[chimo]

I really don't need a hundred - any one want to split a hundred with me?

 

[danfrum]

I'm interested in splitting an order. I'm confused though what would we be buying DS in a V bin?

I'm looking to replace the 5mm LEDs in my APEX pro. From what I've gathered, they are Nichia CS and I wonder if replacing them with these DS models will gain much output?

I have a PM to WeLight - am awaiting a response. I will PM you when I get the details.

 

[Bearcat]

I want a few too.

 

[regulator]

I would be willing to purchase a few (10-20). Let me know.

 

[greenLED]

I measured an intensity of 89,500mcd from the single LED in my Arc-AAA-P DS.

Anybody else remember when anything over 12000 mcd was *really* bright? :laughing:

 

[regulator]

I remember the new "bright" Nichia being 5600mcd.

I just ordered 100 from Mark. I will probably keep somewhere between 1/4 and 1/2 and sell the rest. Cheers,

I guess I'll be modding my ArcAAAs. BS-CS-DS

Are you gonna share a few?

Yes but I better take it over to the Marketplace.
