Is there a pin-compatible replacement for XL-302UWC?

Yes, XL-304UWC is pin-compatible and shares the same 3mm package. While electrically similar, its different color temperature means it's a form-fit-function match, requiring visual verification.

What risks should I check before replacing XL-302UWC?

The main risk is the change in visual appearance due to color temperature differences. The proposed alternative XL-304UWC has a 10000K CCT versus the target's 25000K. Always test the substitute in your application to ensure the light output is acceptable.
