You have to make or buy a spacer.
Copper is best, aluminum is goodā¦
Kiriba-ru sells some, for a reasonable price IMHO
+1! Bought some from him and Iām happy with those!
I didnāt buy the S2+ copper but this surelly looks pretty!
Modders, show us what youāll do to yours :smiling_imp:
Was one of the first to order it, but had to cancel because I had not specified led and driver, et cetera.
Apparently this caused the light to re-appear in stock only moments ago. And I (re)ordered the (truly) last one. Sighā¦
EDIT: And 15 hours later it is already on itās way to me :partying_face:
Great, doesn't it? :-)
Mine is going to be a custom build with H1-A 3A boost driver and an XHP50 90+CRI G4 35G. Gotta decide if I'm gonna put a 10Āŗ or a 5Āŗ TIR on it. Up to 1600+ lumens OTF if I'm not mistaken, I could increase driving current a bit but it's going to be gifted to a non-flashaholic lady (a very smart person).
Cheers ^:)
Mines on the way and I ordered it as a host. Itās being kept to build out as a future gift. But if I take a liking to it then Iāll keep it.
This sounds interesting, please do post about it when you built it
Barkuti, isnāt the H1-A 20mm? I thought the S2+ used a 17mm driver. I think what you are proposing would be an awesome build, so Iām just wondering how you are going to do it. I might be off on the driver dimensions or maybe thereās another H1-A Iām not aware of. I was looking at the one on KD. Thanks.
Yes, but take a look at Jensen567's S2+ builds. Since I have a powerful hot air gun I'm gonna solder the H1-A to the pill in a similar way (I also plan on slightly biting the H1-A board for the pill indentations).
Cheers ^:)
I cannot believe I missed this light!!
I certainly hope there is a batch #2 in the worksā¦
Shame I have 4 Convoyās already. Very niceā¦
Simon just told me ā¦ about 2 months for batch #2
Subscribed for batch #2
Me to
:+1: Ah, got it now.
Wow, I just got the host version and itās pretty nice. I was planning on gifting it but now Iām going to keep it. Now only if Simon would make 18350 tube for itā¦
Now only if Simon would make 18350 tube for itā¦
+1 :+1:
Simon better make it the L6 in copper soon.
If only he sells them as hosts, a triple nichia 219B rose tint is the best combination
Interesting development -
When I first received my Cu S2+ it had a pink cast. Now that it has been sitting on my desk for a couple of weeks, it has started turning more orangish. It will be interesting to watch the natural transformation of color as time goes by. It has a coating, but it must not be sealed from oxygen.
A good wipe down with acetone will remove that coating and let that beautiful copper breathe properly.
