Cree LED XLamp® XFL High-Power Torch LEDs

Cree LED XLamp® XFL High-Power Torch LEDs are fully optimized for flashlights and other portable lighting applications in terms of light output, optical performance, and value. The XFL LED family is offered in multiple performance levels designed for specific flashlight output targets of 3K, 5K, 8K, 10K, and 12K lm, with typical optical and thermal losses accounted for. With a 90% smaller light‑emitting surface (LES) than competing solutions with similar light output, XFL LEDs create portable lights with better-looking beam shapes, fewer color variations, and longer throw distance. Binned at +25°C, the LEDs are available in ANSI white bins at 6500K, 5700K, and 5000K CCT and with 70 and 80 minimum CRI options. These LEDs provide an electrically neutral thermal path and a maximum reverse voltage of 5V. XLamp XFL LEDs are optimized for high‑output flashlights and other portable lighting applications.
