The end of the month is coming soon so I ask myself is there already some more info on the rebel series?
Like upgrade cost, type of leds used from the rebel serie also ms004 version or only ms006?
Release date, also DP deal?

I knew that philips rebel chips are used!:D:

But there are 3 Main types of rebel chips rebel color, rebel white and rebel plus!AFNlogo

And in each of these groups are different types and different quality!

So I would like to know the exact types (the part-numbers) and how much are used of each kind!

So a more scientific approach in comparison can be done!:tiphat:

Because a 316D and 330D are both BMW's but have different performance !

You will have to wait for release bro all the data will come out then.
 
The Rebel upgrades are in the final stage before release where we are preparing the data sheet for the website. They have been delayed for a long time because of the amount of testing that needed to be conducted before we were totally satisfied that the extra efficiency the Rebels offer could be utilized for the application with the correct spectrum ratio and optical delivery. Along the way we have learnt a great deal of useful information which has given us an incite into how the next generation of ballasts from GN will be designed. Initially the Rebel upgrades from release will be available to current GN customers looking to upgrade their existing unit. Talks into a unit with the upgrades pre-built in are currently ongoing. In regards to the spectrum and ratio we wont be releasing that information as of yet because this will offer the time and testing we have put into this project to anyone to easily replicate. However I'm happy to tell you we are using the Rebel parts with the highest radiometric efficiency in the 460m and 660nm direct colour arrays. Again we are also using the highest lumen efficiency Rebels in the required white wavelengths. The IR is not a Luxeon Rebel nor is it made by Phillips and details of the white and IR wavelengths and ratios will be released when the product is available from the GN site. The price of the upgrade is going to be the exact end material cost for GN at roughly £100inc VAT per module. The rebel LEDs, Ledil optics, MCPCB+assembly and thermal interface material would cost around £160+ at retail prices from distributor such Mouser, FLS etc. This project was initially to allow the choice and a go between the quality we have been building biotech lighting to in the UK and the cost effective tried and tested units we are bringing in from China. The Rebels boast over 100% higher radiometric output per watt than say our latest Epiled MCPCB that is in a unit you can buy today and again we are seeing amazing differences in plant morphology as well as other new attributes. Initially we had no intention of it being a product we would sell in big quantities or pre-built into modular ballasts because of the pricing and the pricing monopoly on the top quality LED parts. However if the quantity we can produce and sell dramatically increased I think this would be a fantastic offering with the cost effective metalwork from China and the quality components assembled in the EU. Tangs release grow and more product info will be available in October and we will keep the AFN afloat of any developments.

@my Work when we need to buy a new unit we ask detailed technical product info and nobody finds this strange !
 
The type of chips are in the name bro http://www.philipslumileds.com/products/luxeon-rebel I'm not sure about cost I think it will be just over twice as much as a MS0006 I'm also not sure if there will be a MS0004 version. I think the green light is next month some time again I'm not sure lol.

That is what I was told like a month ago:
"These MS0006 have the newest Epistar chips in,the upgraded lights with the Philips Rebel chips in will be coming out in 3 or 4 weeks as we are still doing extensive testing on them,I have an approximate price on these and we think they will retail around the £550 mark. The upgraded lights will have a wider footprint"

Peace!
