That's is very good bin. Sadly, I sold my VVOV the other day. I should have kept it.

Most people just leave the last "W" off when talking about bin codes because it's usually assumed we're talking about white luxeons.

That's a pretty decent star. Flux ain't bad and the Vf ain't bad either.

ok erm 2 more questions from this newbie. Is there a place to get cheap Thermal Adhesive? And do you think this star would run ok if directly driven at 7.2V, with an 0-sink?

You can get Artic Silver Epoxy or Artic Aluminina Epoxy from The Shoppe @ anlighten.com/shop. This particular LED can be DD'ed at 7.2V. You just have to watch the initial current, especially off NiMh/Li-ion. Also heatsink the star properly.
