I'm a newbie around here and I've seen a couple lights and LEDs listed with what I think is XO tint. For example I've seen both TXOH and WXOT listed. I've looked at the page explaining LED bins but I don't see the X tint designation. Who knows what that tint is?
XO Tint?

I forgot who had this in their sig... but this page http://home.comcast.net/~theledguy/bin_codes/index.htm is very useful in explaining the bin codes. drop down a bit to the graphics under "New Bin Coding System Chart" and you'll see what the middle bits of the code stand for =)
now to go search for the person, to give credit where it's due....

X0 is very white. Right next to W0. From my experience, all my X0's were white and not bluish, and my W0's were slightly pinkish to yellowish.

Might be the confusion of X0. There is no X tint, but there is an X0 tint.

I have a UX1L that's very white, whiter than an TWAK. The latter is very slightly pinkish compared to the UX1L. :shrug:

Yeah, I have a UX1L driven to 937ma... I think there is a tendancy for most of the bins to get whiter when pushed beyond 700ma. At 700ma, V1s and X1s usually aren't super white in my limited experience, but when let free to be wild, they can be very white.

LuxIII's are color-binned at spec current; lower than that and who knows what color you get. I still love my YA ArcLSL. I think I mostly try to get XO's, but after a while they all start looking greenish.

I thought you liked green LEDs?
