Boost itās pulling 8 amps on a VTC5A, I thought I had something wrong at first, cause it would only pull 6+ amps, until i put a fully charged VTC5 and then a tried a VTC5A . I just swapped out the emitter/board in my M25C2 Turbo that had a FETDDdrv. in it. Itās a pretty intense BLUE-ISH spot, just kinda fuzzy and dark to one side, like casting a shadow from the silicone clinging on. Meh, I live with it, because I know what will happen! :person_facepalming:
Dales shaves them down to just above the phophorus and heās getting like 9.4amps or more 2400-2600 lumens, something like that.
Maybe or could be, if they are weak, they might be damaged, I had a few that would light, go thru the levels a couple times and then burn out, some instantly and they still had the dome on, it was released from the base just not completely off, so Iām left wondering, was it the bond wires or was it the chip to the pad problem? Dunno?
Wow, even some of those from KD have badly solder flowed chips??
Thereās no way the solvents cause the chips to fall off i.m.o.
On mine you could see it wasnāt soldered properly.
Itās possible you will blow the bond wires from too much current (~9.5A) if itās direct drive and low circuit resistance. What is the voltage configuration and driver? And have you used other cells in the light successfully?
Yes sir. The tk75vn is modded by Vinh. Probably drawing 4.5 amp from each cellā¦ the Carrier is 4Sā¦ I like using Sony vtc5a. So far I have no problem using the highest mode with my vtc5a.
Either way, if the light break, he said he will fix it for freeā¦ so I donāt worry muchā¦
