Hello ,

i just received 4 cxb3590 CD bin and a meanwell HLG-185H-C1400A .

First, there isnt the MW logo on the driver ??? ....

And second , i was searching for cree cob pictures and all i found look like this :

As we can see , its write Cree in black with a samll logo and B3590R .
The cob i received from Jerry arent like this at all .
Its just write in very small cree , in gold color and thats all !

I searched for same picture cob model from cree on the net , i didn't found it .

So between the MW driver problem and the cobs , do i lost 300 bucks ?

Anyone has the same cob design like me and know its not fake cree cob ?

Meanwell should be on the driver but the gold logo is the new print. I posted a thread on this a few months back. They're legit.

Fear not my friend,
I have purchased 24 x CXB3590 from Jerry thus far and if they are fake there bloody good fakes. I do not think he is an authorized Cree distributor so there is that risk but you pays your money and you take your chances.

Cheers,
Will

on the drivers. Jerry is not an Authorized Meanwell Distributor, so the pictures on Ali and correspondence emails have a sticker over the meanwell logo that is either blank or says "LED Driver"
I had an HLG 185h-c700a go out. Jerry sent me a 240 for no extra charge with my next order. He will take care of you in the event of a warranty claim. Cheers and happy growing.

jerrys email from a month or two ago:

1, Golden color of the logo:
Attachment is the Certification from CREE which describes the color change.
Cree is changing the color of the logo recently, there will be only golden color in the market after the stock sold out months later.

ok for the gold logo , i was worried cuz even on Cree site , i only found the black logo .....

And for the driver thats right , i took off the stickers and see the MW logo .

So for you , the stickers its just cuz Jerry isnt an authorized distributor , so they put stickers on logo , but there is an other story about "the stickers"
There is a stickers on the logo, to mask it, apparently its an known tricks , supposedly, sometimes it prevents from a customs seizure ....

But as most of you think its ok , so ... i believe you .

Why would customs seize an LED driver?

Yeah these stickers let me declare $50 MW as a generic $5 driver.
