Because there are very good hosts for p60 pills which have âextremeâ heat fins meaning lots of surface area. I own a Cryos M2 cooling âbezelâ (head) which I have never had a suitable drop-in for. For a light like this I would think about using a fivemega cooly host though since it offers even more surface area, has a fixed head and is compatible with larger batteries.
These are rather expensive modding products which are in my opinion much better than standard, single-cell hosts from a cooling perspective.
The downsides of the p60 system can be worked around by using a special pill design.
The fins of the EE X6 host are not worth much, they are too small and too close together.
In any case, do you have a rough ETA on arrival of the MZs? Iâm planning on ordering some 4040 MCPCBs and trying to decide if I should wait to order the MZs from you, or get them domestically.
Yes, I think triple and quad CUTE optics builds will be most popular. At 24Amps my calculations predict ~6000lm OTF lumens (6700lm LED) for Quad CUTE and R bin, Vf=3.13V, this means light output will still be 6000lm when battery (VTC5A) is 50% discharged. I will build one X6 this weekend.
They have 8mm2 of die area (expensive) on high thermal conductivity aluminum nitiride subrstrate (expensive),Philips was always among most expensive LED brands.
Too small?
I think they can do 4 Amperes and have low Vf so would be nice for linear drive throwers, like aspherics
You have the boards for them already.
True, but Mouser charges ⏠20.â shipping⌠:weary:
Yes, Black Flat or old XP-G2 etc⌠But they both have very high Vf.
So in real life the Z ES looks ideal for a linear driver on a single cell.
Same benefits as the MZ, which afteral is 4x Z ES dies.
There is Luxeon N (2mm^2 die), which is smaller brother of Luxeon V, they are both newer and more efficient generations compared to Z ES, and soon there will be new LED from Philips,same die as Luxeon N,but in 3535 package.Let's hope they will announce domeless version too.
Okay, then i will wait.
Was thinking to get some 10 or maybe 25 Z ES-es and some of your boards to sell mounted on boards to earn back the shipping costs.
Hope the N will have that nice low Vf too.
