Thanks! What are your thoughts about the emission angle though? It feels to me like the Puck is usually going to be face up with the thing receiving at right angles, so you want something pretty wide. I guess the silicone case would do a very good job of diffusing it though.
Also, I could be wrong here as it's new to me, but mW/sr is power/angle - so to get a radiated power value you need to multiply by the radiated angle (ish). It sounds like the Kingbright one might actually kick out more power total, just over a wider angle? I guess the only way to be sure would be to get some, solder them on, and do some range tests.
