I wish I had room to grow with that, I'm actually rocking the smaller one next to it, some experimental color mixes, seeing what ultra heavy on the natural white, and supplemental red and farred does. Looks good on paper. The 4260k (neutral) white I use has almost a perfect color balance and does put out a decent amount of light, when coupled with semi-narrow(er) lenses (I like the 80's the best as of right now-if they are in a large enough panel) it does emit some intense light. I'm trying those with supplemental colors between 640-670nm+730-740nm, then going to try again with added violet in the 410-435nm area.
The pic is from the LED diode manufacturers datasheet.
There is a 5w Cree XP-G / 5w LEdengin 660nm+740nm in the making right now, should be around in 6-8 weeks if all goes as planned. Planning on making it around the 175w area.
The big light above has mostly all 3w. The blue LEDs handle higher voltages, 4.5v and 1000mA (700mA constant current), so those have an absolute maximum rating of 4.5w, 3w constant power. The natural white handles 4v and 1000mA 700ma continuous, so 4w max, 3w continuous, and the reds are all 3v and 1000m, 3w. The farred is a double 2.4w chip, 2.4v and 1000mA Xs 2. 4.8w. Nothing gets powered even close to the maximum rating, everything is between 2.4-3.6v and 630mA. 1.51w for reds and the farreds, 2.26w for blues and whites. Each of the 6 120mm fans consumes 4.4w each. apx. 12-14% ac/dc conversion loss.
So size does matter
what are we looking at here 3w/5w???....Is it too early to talk about the cree/osram panel that's you said was in the making for this year??ha
Don't tell me your gonna be using this beast??........I have jealousy issues
I find that petite things with T&A are more up my alley..........I'm not judging ha
True...................But mine came from the Netherlands, and yes it was plastered all over the box(doh!).....
There is complete manufacturer PDF data sheets on both Fero's site and A51's for the LEDs. All parts # and bin selections are there as well. Full disclosure of exactly what the light is.
Expect a good amount of journals starting up using these in the next weeks. I'm giving a few away, plus doing a good discount for those willing to journal or do side by sides.
