ATA SUPER HIGH-POWERED LEDS


http://www.ledsales.com.au..., 10W high-powered warm white LED, retail AU $32.00 (US$29.61 )
Received 11-05-07, tested 11-08-07
 This is a very large, warm white LED (typically 3,500K color temperature), consisting of eight (8) dice (light-emitting regions) connected in a series/parallel configuration and covered by a phosphor.



The metal outer packaging is very large; yet you'll still want to mount this LED to a heatsink or else it *WILL* overheat and fail if it is operated at its designed current for more than 8 to 10 seconds.
There are two screw holes on the top & bottom of the LED's body to allow you to do just that.
The extra metal *DOES* serve to act as heatsinking, but its primary purpose appears to be to facilitate electrical connection. However, you should not attempt to cut the excess off; it is obviously there for a reason.


Here is a look at the front of the LED, with the unit receiving just a couple of milliamps to allow the eight individual dice to be seen.
Note that the dice are underneath a large single phosphor "cap".


Measures 131,000mcd at a drive current of 718mA.

Viewing angle appears to be 165-175°
This is a very wide-angle LED, and if I've told you once, I've told you a million times:
Wider viewing angles always, always, ALWAYS equal lower mcd values!!!!!!!!!


Spectrographic analysis
Spectrographic analysis of this warm white LED.
Note that the phosphor emission is significantly greater than the LED's native blue emission.


Spectrographic analysis
Same as above; different spectrometer & software used.



http://www.ledsales.com.au..., 5W high-powered warm white LED, retail AU $20.00 (US$18.51 )
Received 11-05-07, tested 11-08-07
 This is a very large, warm white LED (typically 3,500K color temperature), consisting of four (4) dice (light-emitting regions) connected in a series/parallel configuration and covered by a phosphor.


NOTE: I used the photograph of the 10W LED above, as they look virtually identical.

These LEDs can also be purchased in cool white if you need them in that colo(u)r.


***VERY, CRITICALLY, SUPER DUPER IMPORTANT!!!***
 I've said this before, but I'll say it again. You ***MUST*** use these LEDs with heatsinks - applying anywhere near their rated power without one will cause the LED to heat up and die within a matter of seconds!!!




Do you manufacture or sell an LED flashlight, task light, utility light, or module of some kind? Want to see it tested by a real person, under real working conditions? Do you then want to see how your light did? If you have a sample available for this type of real-world, real-time testing, please contact me at ledmuseum@gmail.com.

Please visit this web page for contact information.

Unsolicited flashlights, LEDs, and other products appearing in the mail are welcome, and it will automatically be assumed that you sent it in order to have it tested and evaluated for this site.
Be sure to include contact info or your company website's URL so visitors here will know where to purchase your product.
