I hope this will be a low beam divergence diode
That's right, the sharp diode is often pushed higher than the datasheet,I found the divergence is very impressive with a 2w diode,If they are really good, I will choose it in my build instead of pltb450bSeems like the Vf is a bit higher than other 450nm diodes we have seen. I do wonder about those divergence specs as this must be a multi-mode diode. It should be easy to push it over 2 watts.
These diodes seem to have good specs and I am looking to see some beam pics and measurements. Still waiting for the single mode 1W 450nm diodes that OSRAM is developing for the car industry!

I think that only looking at the beam. div. specs without knowing if it is a single or multi mode diode is not useful at all. Because the raw divergence of the diode has no relation to the final divergence when collimated with a lens.

Yes,that's right,but i hope this diode is low divergence, Everything can happen when we have a sharp 638nm diode with a half divergence mitsubisi diodeI think that only looking at the beam. div. specs without knowing if it is a single or multi mode diode is not useful at all. Because the raw divergence of the diode has no relation to the final divergence when collimated with a lens.
