They have likely become better that when I last purchased a ready made, I typically build everything myself in the multi watt blue category and I even tore down some working 1-2w blues just to reuse the hosts as I had so many, I do have some freaky ndb7875 builds doing near 3W with a G3 lens that I still use but mostly I work with larger.........I do have some compact 1.5 - 2.xx watt units that I have saved, really if I was going to build one it would be a 7875 @ 2.4a, but I do have some NOS DTR 7875 diodes and some I bought from Rickers that were 0 hour pulls in my supply, don't know what's available in the marketplace as far as 0 hour but they wouldn't be cheap if true virgin........I think O-Like has some on ebay, maybe that new osram 3.5 will appear at some point, would be fun to check out.
----EDIT----
These claim to be new and show clean pins, you should be able to get at least 2.25w - 2.5w @ 2.4a from a 0 hour 7875 with a 3E or G3 lens, close to 3w with a G2 > https://www.ebay.com/itm/Brand-New-...h=item214ced5032:g:P78AAOSw9ipb97Jx:rk:6:pf:0
