Identify this SMT high power LED???

that is

No, I checked Lumileds and it's not their product. The star comes pre-attached to a small board. This one is similar in size to a SuperFlux LED (about 7.5mm square), but the conductors that exit the LED are flat and in this application are welded to a metal board. This came from a tail light from a Yamaha motorcycle. I know Yamaha uses SnapLED's from Lumileds in some products, but this is something different from a SnapLED. The clear "lens" in the pic is actually removable and when attached significantly focuses the LED (appears to be about a 30 degree angle). Without that lens it's a very wide angle

- 110 or so.

Anyone know who makes this beast? I need a high power SMT-mountable LED in red and this would fit the bill, but I need to find out who makes it so I can get pricing :)

Thanks!

Good guess, but no luck...I checked and it's not a Stanley part either.

I'm determined to get to the bottom of this mystery! The folks I know in the LED biz don't want to spill the beans on who their competitors are it seems.

Isn't that a Luxeon Star?

Just an educated guess, but try Stanley.

It doesn't look all that unusual to me. It's a modified lead-frame version (for better heat sinking) of the regular old high-output square LEDs. Similar to (but not the same as) Lumileds SnapLED products.
