Brightest blue LED with a small budget

[Elfreda Blau]

I have a project where I have to do a lot of illumination with blue (not royal) LEDs.


Looking at specs, it seems the Rebel (high current version) is the winner at 48 lumens. The triple Rebel stars are too expensive, and optics too limited.


Other options I should be looking at? Anybody know a source that actually has the blue Rebel on star in stock?

My Vote is the Cree XP as Lumens matter but at what cost...Electricity and initial procurement.

The Rebel high Current may or may not work just run the numbers at the $ KWH for the time frame you plan.

The Rebel is a quality LED.

Some who go less expensive to start spend more in the long run.

The rebels are brighter, but will not last longer, than the crees IMO
