Cree Introduces the Next Generation of XLamp XPG Platform
XP-G3 LED Delivers More than 205 Lumens-Per-Watt
DURHAM, N.C. -- Cree, Inc. (Nasdaq: CREE) introduces theXLamp® XP-G3 LED, delivering 31 percent more lumens and 8 percent higher lumens-per-watt (LPW) than the industry-leading XP-G2 LED. Leveraging key elements of Cree’s SC5 Technology™ Platform, the high-power XP-G3 LED improves the lumen density, voltage characteristics and reliability of previous XP-G generations. This best-in-class performance enables lighting manufacturers to deliver differentiated solutions at lower system costs for applications such as roadway, outdoor area, spot and high-bay lighting.

“We are designing a new series of 130 lumens-per-watt high performance streetlights and the choice to use the new Cree XP-G3 LED was clear,” said Wilbur Tarn, director of OrangeTeK. “The XP-G3 LED delivers high efficacy and high reliability in the familiar XP-G footprint, allowing us to modify elements of an existing design to shorten our design time by half.”

Cree pioneered the industry-standard high power 3535 form factor with the XP platform and continues to deliver breakthrough performance with the XP-G3, achieving over 205 LPW at 350mA and up to 863 lm at 2A. Extending Cree’s leadership in reliability and lumen maintenance, the XP-G3 LED has 6,000 hours of LM-80 data immediately available that provides L90 lifetimes well beyond 50,000 hours, even at an extreme 105°C, 1500 mA test condition.

“Cree is committed to R&D that enables our customers to deliver the best system value in the market with high-power LEDs,” said Dave Emerson, Cree vice president and general manager, LEDs. “The XP-G3 is the first LED in its class to shatter the 200 LPW barrier, setting a new benchmark for the XP-G class of LED and joining Cree’s other high-power LEDs that deliver this level of performance.”

The new LEDs are characterized and binned at 85°C, available in ANSI White, EasyWhite® 3- and 5-step color temperatures (2700K – 6500K), and CRI options of 70, 80 and 90. Product samples are available now and production quantities are available with standard lead times. Please visit http://www.cree.com/xlamp/xpg3 to learn more.


It's like a xte and xpg did the deed and produced a phenom.

they gonna do Far Red in that format I wonder ?
looking to build some greenhouse lights for sunsetters for this summer

Cutter sent me a email much like that post of yours , but different not as informative on these new emitters
ThanX GG

No body has got their hands on one of these and hung it in a tent yet?

its dang expensive

that vid is from 2013 iirc

Brings an interesting thought - would the led's orientated in a housing being reflected in that manner eliminated all of the bleaching issues with led?

Plessey's directional GaN on Si with Phyto's knowledge and expertise. There's gonna be some synergy there IMO. Yes folks there's life beyond CREE based products!

​

Plessey has entered a license agreement with PhytoLux for solid state horticultural growth lighting. Plessey will add new arm to its semiconductor fab operations, with a global exclusive license agreement to manufacture and sell the PhytoLux horticultural lighting product. Plessey has also taken on the operational, technical and commercial activities of PhytoLux, which it positions as world-class LED plant growth lighting.

Steve Edwards, founder and MD of PhytoLux, now head of the LED lighting solutions division of Plessey, said, “Plessey.... is at the forefront of the global LED lighting revolution. We are very excited to have reached this agreement and are looking forward to delivering our unique solution to the global horticultural market over the coming months and years.”

“Steve and the team at PhytoLux have built an impressive record of innovation and proof of concept with the researchers and industrial growers in the UK,” said Michael LeGoff, Plessey CEO. “The horticultural market is a key growth area for solid-state lighting and is without a significant dominant player.”

​

LeGoff added, “We believe we have an opportunity to be that dominant player with the PhytoLux end product. Our GaN-on-silicon, MAGIC, technology for power LED applications is perfect for these kinds of directed lighting applications where we have very tight wavelength control. The next generation Plessey LEDs with integrated electronics and optics will further add to the intrinsic advantages of the PhytoLux range of products. We are very excited about the prospects of this deal in one of the fastest growing sectors for LED lighting.” A recent market research report by Wintergreen Research projects that the horticultural LED lighting market is set to reach $5.12 billion by 2020.

Plessey has developed its MaGIC (Manufactured on GaN-on-Si I/C) LED technology to cut the cost of LED lighting by using standard silicon chip manufacturing techniques. Dumbass comment by Bobby in 3.2........

I have used a 3w led panel for 3 years. It has served me well. I really want move into a cob setup with 3590 or vero.
I have the ability to source and build it. I would prefer to have a kit with all parts included maybe without a frame. A one stop shopping deal either from a company or an individual would be cool too.
I think it would be a quick fun project and save a few bucks. I would expect to pay for the time and trouble. Any ideas or suggestions?

Thought this was kind of ...... interesting .....

seems a lil pricey compared to the $0.50/W philips/GE/Feit SMD A19 bulbs weve been using, and i bet those epistars are no more efficient....

Oh no doubt. I thought it was comical more than anything. You're paying for a fancy fixture with moguls on it for the same bulbs we all have access to @ the local home depot or lowes. Hahaha

Fucking a it does. Fran posts the most helpful stuff usually, but somehow Fran got undies in a bunch with the ignorance statement, but no one said anything about specs. "Hey that art is cool!" "Oh yea, fuck you and your ignorance!" LOL!

I only get em' in a bunch when someone posts a response so fast it's obvious they either didn't read the article/post and/or didn't take a moment to think about the implications and are just trying to get their post count up. But whatever let's talk about sex baby, the future. "Set 'em to stun" indeed.



At Prolight + Sound Osram is presenting its phaser, (KAHHHHHHHN!), laser technology for the first time with a luminous flux of up to 18,000 lumen (lm). Phaser is a compound of phosphor and laser. It will enable lighting solutions in future to offer the maximum available luminance. In developing phaser technology Osram was able call on its extensive know-how from the automotive and medical sectors. In 2014 Osram received the internationally renowned R&D 100 Award for the development of the Itos Phaser 3000, the first LED/laser-based white light module. Innovative LARP technology (Laser Activated Remote Phosphor), which was developed for automotive applications, has been on the roads also since 2014 as laser front lighting on various series models. Now this technology is being used in the entertainment sector for the first time. It offers very high illuminance levels, previously unattainable with LED light sources. The long life also leads to low maintenance costs and high luminaire reliability. Initial application-specific pilot projects, which can be seen at the fair, are being implemented with an external OEM partner and also internally at Osram.

that picture is not from the laser, but from the S32 RGBW also mentioned in that article @FranJan
