a short view on optional gear that likely will be added to next batch, easy to install if just used with the LED+ and a screw to connect it to battery
or connect the positive to the indicator LED output (before the resistor)
each of the 3 LED rings has a trimmer for brightness adjustment
low battery and shut down voltage can be adjusted if I build them
of course I will be making those in custom colors, production from fireflies will be likely only one option
The used LDO and Microchip have a very low standby draw of about 50uA, LEDs can be build in different max. brightness settings
Lexel can you measure the optic and see if larger domed LED’s fit under it (like LH351D). Fireflies seem to think it wont fit but that would surprise me if that was the case.
I’m really interested in what kind of runtimes we can get out of the highest regulated output for the Nichia version and if heat is an issue. I’m assuming that’s 1-1500 lumens?
Hoping I won’t regret not ordering the XPL HI version which has more throw and nearly twice the output. I was thinking the 3D tint might be too cool and the 4B tint might be too green. So I chose the Nichia, which should have great tint but won’t have the wow factor of the 3D.
The switch bezel looks to have the little notches on the inside edge. So it looks like it’s threaded. Whether or not you can unscrew it without scratching it depends on your snap ring pliers and your skill.
As far as it being glued as well, maybe someone can tell us.
