Another 250 lumen LED @ 1A by Edison

Another LED claiming luminous efficacy of 100 lumen/watt at 350ma


Read about it here: http://ledsmagazine.com/press/14301

From the very scant information available this one could also be based on a Cree die.

oh snaps!

I'd bet anything that pops up in the next 60 days saying 250 lumens a1.0A is based off the Cree, its just to close in specs, I'm just happy they exist no matter who makes them. Now get me a 250 lumen LED for my 2D Mag.

Are they using a high dome? Maybe this would make a better mod then the cree as we could use our current reflectors.

I hope the slug of the emitter is not connected to the anode like the LED from Seoul Semiconductor.

If the slug is connected to the cathode it could be a direct replacement for the Luxeon and that in itself would make it very interesting. If you look at the other company's products, it will likely also be available on a star.

Sweet. Soon we'll have high lumen Lux compatable drop ins for our old lights. C'mon more Lux compatable LEDs, upgrades for Fenix's and HDSs.

Has anyone ever purchased from Edison Opto?

I'd be interested in hearing about their leds from someone who has handled and tested a few of them.

Wasn't there someone on ebay selling Edison Opto emitters and stars?

their product names seems to be trying to copy others, like "Edixeon" LEDs

Do they work in luxeon based applications? Where can you get one? How much?

their website is provided in the press release, but i dont see that particular product available yet.. maybe e-mail them or give it a few more days..

Edison is the manufacturer of Edixeon LEDs ;-).

Oups, I'm a bit slow, just got it...

They also have a 20W, 700 lumen star. See it Here

How about a Mag hotwire, except with an LED instead? Definitely doable. The Vf is 18.5V. That's almost K2 territory -LOL!

We nee to get this into the hands of one of our CPF tech support (eg Newbie) to really get the low down/numbers on these. So many claims but we need real world proof.

For anyone who is curious, the Europe & US Sales Manager is a fellow named Eddy Kao.

I contacted them a while back to see if there was a North American dealer/rep that I could purchase from and was told at the time that there wasn't.

Other than that, they seem to be a bit of an led enigma.

Anybody tried a Edison Opto LED?

Anybody?? 3,5, 10, or 20 watt array?

Does anyone know if Edison Opto is a contender or just a pretender???

Do the high power 10 & 20 LEDs they show on their website exist or are they alive only on paper?

Much ado about vapourware?

I did ever received they samples 2 years ago
But, not satisfied with the efficiency
they have a lot of new designs and work very hard
let see

They do exist. See this thread.
As for 5W and 3W, they have ugly yellowish artifacts caused by the silicone layer. Edi 5W, Mag 3D, 9*AA and custom variable Iout driver:

HDS U60GT in the same conditions for comparision:

The thing in that press release that most catches my eye is towards the bottom: a claim of 70 lm at 350mA in a warm white led. To date, other warm whites have lagged far behind the higher color temperature white LEDs. A number of people simply don't care for the higher color temperature light of standard white LEDs. I wonder what the highest flux bin in a warm white Luxeon has been seen by anyone here.
