Which Mono LEDs are good, which ones are available to buy on PCBs/Star/Circles today?

Hello,

I've been poking around looking for mono LEDs and tried to find Cree XQ-E Monos for some colored fixtures I want to build. Most of them I'm finding are just the little LED chip part and they aren't mounted to a star or circle PCB board.

Do you all have recommendations for other options from Cree XQ-E monos that are readily available to purchase and already on PCBs?

I'm finding lots like this (not mounted to PCBs)


But not a lot like this (mounted to a PCB for easy install)

Hmm, I still thought I'd see more Cree or even Lumileds... Does anybody know a better place to shop for monos?

I checked out Amare lights, they list the leds they use so that's helpful for searching. I'm not sure but I think the Cree xq-e might be new so that's why they aren't as available as the xp...?
