Shenzhen Furuier makes a 15K, but their websites stinks for datasheets.

IMHO you are much better off using "known good" LEDs and just mixing different colors to get the result you want. There really aren't any super-high-efficiency HP LEDs at a kelvin color that high - once things get that blue, lumen efficiency drops off so most of the highly efficient "whitish" LEDs are warmer than that.

If you are mixing Q5 cool white Cree XR-E or XP-E or 100-bin cool white Rebels with XR-E or XP-E Royal Blues, a 50:50 mix will give you close to a 15kk color.

If you're using XP-Gs for the cool whites, you probably want around a 60:40 mix (skewed towards the royal blues).

I'm just asking because somebody trying to tell me 14000K led are existing and they are good for reef lighting. I had been looking for those kind of led and only china manufacturer offering this stuff. I don't belive in efficiency or 14kk color.
