Subject:
List of leds, from best to worse
Flashlights
|
Is there a list like this?
I've seen different lumens, throw, spill, ect, but not a single good list with the leds from worse to best. ___________ |
|
The throw / spill is more dependent on the flashlight around the LED than anything.
Here's a basic APPROXIMATE list from dim to bright however (probably not perfectly in order). This also doesn't take into account how much power is being sent to the LEDs by the flashlight's driver circuits. 5MM Generic LEDs (0.5-5 Lumens ea) 5MM Nichia LEDs (5-10 Lumens ea) Any Generic "High Power" LED (10-70 Lumens, varies wildly) Luxeon I (40 Lumens @ 350ma) Nichia IO Moon (45 Lumens @ 350ma) Luxeon III (80 Lumens @ 1000ma) Luxeon V (87-120 Lumens @ 700ma) CREE P2 (67-73 Lumens @ 350ma) CREE P3 (73-80 Lumens @ 350ma) Luxeon Rebel 80 (80 Lumens @ 350ma) CREE P4 (80-87 Lumens @ 350ma) Luxeon K2 PWC4 (85 Lumens @ 350ma, 250lm at 1500ma) SSC P4 T Bin (70-91 Lumens @ 350ma) CREE Q2 (87-94 Lumens @ 350ma) CREE Q3 (94-100 Lumens @ 350ma) Luxeon Rebel (100 Lumens @ 350ma) Edison Optics KLC8 (100 Lumens @ 350ma) CREE Q4 (100-107 Lumens @ 350ma) SSC P4 U Bin (91-118 Lumens @ 350ma) CREE Q5 (107-114 Lumens @ 350ma) Osram Golden Dragon Plus Ultra White (120 Lumens @ 350ma) CREE R2 (114-120 Lumens @ 350ma) CREE MC-E K Bin (370-430 Lumens @ 350ma) CREE MC-E M Bin (430-490 Lumens @ 350ma) SSC P7 B Bin (570-700 Lumens @ 2800ma) SSC P7 C Bin (700-800 Lumens @ 2800ma) Edit: Most accurate list I can do at the moment... {Update, courtesy of isotco} R2 114-122 lm @ 350 ma R3 122-130 lm @ 350 ma R4 130-139 lm @ 350 ma R5 139-148 lm @ 350 ma - current generation cree xp-g leds. S2 148-156 lm @ 350 ma - next flux bin, some R5s might really be S2s |

Useful list. I think that's the first time I've seen them all in order.
Never heard of the golden dragon one though. ___________ Addicted to yellow envelopes!--UK-- I'm a forum only moderator and not part of DX staff. To contact DX staff use: http://services.dealextreme.com New customer guide: www.tinyurl.com/help-dx |

I did some datasheet digging and updated the list, using the most accurate binning info I could find. Note that while most of these are listed at 350ma, most can handle much more (especially the CREE LEDs).

@ thefezman
Could you help me with buying a flashlight? I'd like a flashlight but I don't know which to choose. My budget is around $20-25 and I'd it to be a portable flashlight ( AA or AAA battery) Thank you. |

@Jailbait
sku.14909 is a nice flashlight for 2 x AA. Size as about the same as a mini maglite. ___________ Stay a while and listen! |

Looking for this thread and reading it again, it would be quite useful stickied.
