Still playing the waiting game on the HEWs unfortunately. Almost two months now waiting on CREE. Apparently someone in North America is buying up every CREE white LED they can get their hands on and its having a huge knock on effect for everyone else. Its very frustrating.

HEW - High Efficiency Whites.

They are a new addition to the XP-E range of LEDs with output similar and very close to the brighter XP-G only with the power consumption of XP-E.
