To heck with the optics. Just the fact that you don't need to solder will allow much easier building of different arrays, not to mention the risk of frying your premium Cree everytime you get close with a soldering iron. I reckon they'll come up with suitable optics at some point anyhow. Kind of makes you wonder why it's taken so long for someone to design this connector for LEDs.

I've been waiting for the common screw in base LEDs in high power versions to become more commonplace, but with these connectors I might just be convinced to do a DIY LED array.
