If you could fire a laser in one direction of the cosmos and it didn’t disperse or hit anything that would absorb it, given enough time. would you see it coming from the opposite direction from where you sent it?
Is there something like Moore’s law with LED emitters?
I’ve refreshed many old lights with newer emitters and the increased output is amazing.
Will I look back on today’s emitters 10 years from now and laugh at how weak they are or has this technology been nearly pushed to its limit?
Not asking for crystal ball answers, just wondering if anyone has deep knowledge of how far this can go.
......I think I have a lot of those prerequisites. Photos to soon follow of blurry images of something that really is just a blurry image and to others a sign of big foot.
If the led is soldered onto a alumnium non-DTP board (this is what the Ultrafire C8 likely came with), yes probably it will cook. If the led is soldered onto a copper DTP-board (such as a Sinkpad, Noctigon or KD-DTP board) and is clamped down with some hermal compound in between, it will be fine.
