Anyone know if 5A XP-G LEDs exist? :thinking:



And if they do, where can I purchase a few 5A binned XP-G leds? I'm not concerned on the flux bin, just tint. Thanks!

The tint bin naming system changed for the XP-G so there won't ever be one. :P Of course the name isn't really what you care about. There aren't any neutral or warm XP-G's released yet. They started by releasing the cool white with neutral to come.
 
At the time XP-G's are only avaliable for 5000K to 8300K. So the best you can get will be WH or WJ Bin. From now on every group diveded to four part, ex. 5A will be 5A1, 5A2, 5A3, and 5A4. More accurate color chromaticity choosing chance.

wellllll....

There was an announcement by cree in the fixed lighting forum, where they said they are going to release a x-pg based LED light bulb with 2800k, 90CRI and >90lumen/W wall plug efficiency, IIRC.

So _something_ is going to be released....

They are not using neutral or warm LEDs to create that low K. They use cool white LEDs mixed with yellow and red if I remember right.

Yep, they already have a fixure like than that's XR-E based installed in the Pentagon.

I can't wait for high CRI and neutral tinted XP-Gs! I also wouldn't mind trying out a WH color bin. Does anyone know if these are available yet?
 
here is a link to the announcement makes 969 lumens of warm white 2800k 91 CRI at 102 lumens per watt....where do i go to invest in CREE?
 
Hm
No plans, or no plans in 2009?
Seeing its already november, even getting just low-CRI neutral and warm ones out this year seems to be an ambitious shedule.
 
Actually, I think he is asking if you can trust the seller
 
Hello, is that you know is reseller http://kaidomain.com/ProductDetails.aspx?ProductId=10062
, And can we trust him on the characteristics of the LED sold (R5 bin and color WC (cool white).
Nb: apparently on the net, is that it was he who led the (R5 bin and color WC):(

There is no such thing as a WC tint bin XP-G. XP-G are binned according to a new ANSI standard, and if you look carefully on the web page to which you linked, you will see that they are XPGWHT-LE-0000-00H51. This includes the following tint bins: 0A, 0B, 0C, 0D, 0R, 0S, 0T, 0U, 1A, 1B, 1C, 1D, 1R, 1S, 1T, 1U, 2A, 2B, 2C, 2D, 2R, 2S, 2T, 2U, 3A, 3B, 3R and 3S. WC is nowhere on the list. If the given kit number is correct, then all you can say is that they are cool white R5 bin. The seller may be attempting to simplify the situation by using a popular tint designation, but this is misleading because of the variation in actual tints that they have likely received. According to another vendor that is selling XP-G LEDs, they received many different tint bins from Cree when they ordered this kit number.
