    Default New 228Lm @ 1000 mAh 3.7vf star LED

    Gawd, I wish they'd do these in colors...

    But still. 228Lm, that's closing on twice a K2 a third less current!

    I'm waiting on my order to come in.

    Yeah, if you're going for white that'd be nice, but I want COLORS!!!

    I think neophyl did a Imperial Knight saber with the Seoul P4 which is the same die. Nice, but the lack of colors really kills it to me.

    but X, with that brightness, you could filter it and still be brighter than a 5 watter i bet

    Not necessarily... if you need a 50% filter (look at the number in the leefilter swatch book) to get a decent green that's theoretically 114 lumens next to 160 for a V. Or that a Rebel in the top bins is 145 at only 700mA.

    Filters are never a replacement for the actual colors.

    and about this

    240 lumen at 1000 mA (3W or 4W?)

    what do you think?



    I have bought 2 of them, I will try them as soon as possible.

    I already mentioned them above. The Seoul P4 and Cree XR-E are the same die. They've been making star Seoul's for a lot longer though.

    Ive been using the seoul p4's for awhile now. They dont have a good green response though when using a filter compared to a K2 white led.

    Blue filters look brighter on the p4 than on the K2 though and they are great for an actual white bladed sabre like the imperial knight.

    Ive also got some cree's and they look the same brightness wise.

    can someone try one of these (or better yet snap a pic) of one of these with a nice yellow or orange filter?

    funny, I was looking at the same Q5 on DealExtreme no later then yesterday.

    DealExtreme needs to start carrying color power leds...


    If someone give it a try, please let us know!!
