-For high power LED's the Nichia chromaticity binning codes are now based on [[ANSI White]] quadrants. A bin of SW50 is an ANSI quadrangle of 5000K (SW45 is 4500K and so on). Forward voltage bins are L (2.7-3.1V) and M (3.1-3.5V).
+For high power LEDs the Nichia chromaticity binning codes are now based on [[ANSI White]] quadrants. A bin of SW50 is an ANSI quadrangle of 5000K (SW45 is 4500K and so on). Forward voltage bins are L (2.7-3.1V) and M (3.1-3.5V).
 The '''Nichia 119A and 219A''' series seem to be identical on the top, with the difference being the layout of solder pads on the bottom. The 219's solder pads match the [[Cree]] XP-G which is the same physical size of 3.5mm (the Nichia board is 0.2mm thinner) with nearly the same voltage, current, and output. There are at least three variations with different product numbers based on the color temperature:
-* The '''NVSSW119A''' and '''NVSW219A''' series LED's are available up to a B14 flux bin.
+* The '''NVSSW119A''' and '''NVSW219A''' series LEDs are available up to a B14 flux bin.
 * The '''NVSW119A-H3''' and '''NVSW219A-H3''' have a neutral tint of 5000K and have a maximum flux bin of B12.
 * The warmer (2700-4500K) high [[Terminology#CRI|CRI]] '''NVSL119A-H1''' and '''NVSL219A-H1''' have a maximum flux of B11 but a CRI as high as 92.
-In 2012, Illumination Supply obtained a number of NVSL219A-H1 LED's, which became a favorite of modders due to the high CRI (92 typical, 85 minimum) and 4500K neutral tint (Cree LED's with such a high CRI typically have a much warmer tint) and pretty reasonable B10 flux bin. These same LED's were also incorporated into some [[Malkoff]] drop-ins, a run of Xeno flashlights, and L3 Illumination's 1xAA twisty L10.
