XM-L Cree's

[Mike]

I was hoping you guys would have them. Would much rather go through a sponsor I trust not to mention one that has an expert forum. Update us once you have them. I know I want a dozen to play with. Do you know if they plan on a RB emitter in this series?

RB's aren't likely. You would see an XP-G royal first.

You are going to play with these too, right? With the out put of these even at 700ma it seems a 2:1 XR-E RB to one XM-L is a starting point. I do hope you get acess to something more between 8K and 10K.

**** yeah I'm going to play with these. 1000lm @ 3A in a 5mmx5mm package is fun in the making. My supplier is getting a pretty large selection in, so hopefully I'll be able to pick and choose bins without much difficulty. 8300K is currently the highest listed bin for the XM-L right now. I'm sure Cree will expand the lineup in due time. Honestly, high kelvin whites don't look that great. The current shift in the community is to warmer white color temperatures for better color rendering.

What driver would you use

[evilc66]

Not sure just yet. I have access to some drivers that will go up to 2.5A, but not 3A.
