==Golden Dragon Plus==
==Golden Dragon Plus==


Osram is known for the Golden Dragon series of LED's and the OSTAR multiple-die LED's. The Golden Dragon Plus LED (comparable to a [[Cree]] XP-E) was used in several [[NiteCore]] flashlight models and is still used in some budget models (e.g. the Black Cat HM-01, Tank007 E07, and Uniquefire AA-S1). The Golden Dragon Plus is denoted by the product code W5AM while the regular Golden Dragon is W5SM. The difference between the two seems to be the Plus has a clear silicone lens over the LED while the Golden Dragon has flatter clear resin. However for some reason, the GDP seems to have a wider hotspot which is opposite of what a lens should do. There are tint families for warm white (product code LCW, also includes neutral white tints), white (LW), and ultra white (LUW, others call it cool white).

[[File:osram-oslon.jpg|thumb|Osram Oslon Square LED]]The Oslon Square was announced in November 2011. Capable of being driven at currents up to 1.5 amps, it is a rough equivalent of the Cree XP-G, although the LED itself is a little smaller a 3mm by 3mm. The LED is binned at 700mA. The LED is binned by tints using the ANSI scheme below. The Oslon Square EC is warm white and a minimum CRI of 80, the PC runs 4000-5000K with a minimum CRI of 70, the UW is 5300-6500K and a minimum CRI of 65.
[[File:osram-oslon.jpg|thumb|Osram Oslon Square LED]]The Oslon Square was announced in November 2011. Capable of being driven at currents up to 1.5 amps, it is a rough equivalent of the [[Cree]] XP-G, although the LED itself is a little smaller at 3mm by 3mm. The viewing angle is 120°. The LED is binned at 700mA. The LED is binned by tints using the ANSI scheme below with the cooler tints using a different scheme. There are several varieties of this chip. The Oslon Square LCW CQAR.EC Eco Champ is intended for indoor use with a warm white tint and a minimum CRI of 80. The LCW CQAR.PC Power Champ has neutral tint of 4000-5000K with a minimum CRI of 70, the LUW CQAR Streetwhite is a cooler 5300-6500K tint with a minimum CRI of 65.
