I've been spending some time myself designing remote phosphor lighting and I'm wondering if they've really developed a new remote phosphor technology, or if they're sourcing a custom phosphor blend and substrate from someone like Intematix.

Also curious if they're using a film (like WhiteOptics White97) or having the cavities coated (I forget the product name). None of the coatings were cheap when I was researching them, but a % or two better than the films.

I'd love see the LED driver board on these...

But anyhow:

It's incredibly cool stuff, especially when you show someone the raw blue leds (blindingly bright), then drop a remote phosphor over it.

Kudos for going for it, and good luck. I wish I had your fortitude!
