From the Nichea website:
The new Nichia LEDs overcome low power limitations of current parts by increasing the area of the InGaN chip to 1 mm2 and powering the chip with up to two watts of electrical power. At a 350 mA current, photometric luminous flux for the packaged LEDs is 23 lm for white, 7 lm for blue, 28 lm for blue-green, and 20 lm for green.
... Engineering samples of the parts will be available in Q2 of calendar 2002... The NCCx002 has an 11.2 mm width, 7.2 mm length, and 6 mm height; its estimated lifetime is 50,000 hours.
Has any one seen one of these or know anything about them? How do they compare to the Luxeons?
