OSRAM CSLNM1.TG & CULNM1.TG 1mm², CSLPM1.TG & CULPM1.TG 2mm²

Which driver did you go with? I was planning on using the l2 as my 1x1mm host, instead of the l6, just because its easier to get the l4p driver working right in it. I’d I could get the eswitch working in the l6 with 3v at about 5a, that would be way better, and slightly larger reflector.

Texas avenger 3 channel LDO modified to 1S removed LDO and with Andúril firmware I setted ramp max where a fully charged battery making the most lumens. Removed spring bypasses, using long 22 AWG wires to led Not using turbo because it give too much amps to led. Reflector bottom need grinding to fit wires and not using centering ring.

Thanks. Pretty close to what I figured, but was hoping you found something eswitch and regulated. I was hoping to not use extra external resistance to keep the current low.

Ill try the first one in an l2 host with my inbound l4p driver and see what it does, maybe even measure with the l6 reflector loosely fitted.

Anyone have any good results with the (2mm2) Osram emmiters? Just recieved a couple but am unsure what I’m going to put them in.

Since they are rectangular instead of square, maybe a headlamp or bike lamp using a wide angle lens? The beam would then still be super tight in vertical orientation and super wide horizontal. :sunglasses:

They are not really very rectangular, it’s pretty close to square.
In a reflector it still makes a round spot, so have anything noticeably wider than taller you would need a lens, and even then it’s still pretty square.

Yes, but if you do use a wide angle lens meant for bike lights and such, and orient the slightly rectangular die in the same orientation, it should make an even more interesting beam shape than the lens would make with a truly square die. Add to that the fact of this particular die being such high intensity for throw, and you get something very special indeed! :wink:

So is the XPL HI dead now?

For intensity yeah.
It does have higher efficiency and lower colour temperatures though for people that want that.

I changed the 2mm2 white flat (so not the throwier 1mm2 version that has a bit too low output I think for this light) in my mini-GT for a dedomed XP-G2 3D because of the much better tint, I do not like the very cool tint. It costed me just 15kcd.

The XP-L Hi comes in many tints but I was unfortunate to never have found a tint that was really great.

The GT mini has a FET 4.5A driver. Does this mean it’s direct drive or constant current? I want to use this led but don’t know if the stock driver will work.

Direct Drive. The XP-L HI it uses wont draw as much current as these two LEDs. You can use low drain batteries if you really want to do it

I don’t know where you read that the driver outputs “4.5A” but the whole point of a FET is that it will pull basically all the current the battery can provide (minus the resistance of the circuit in the host and driver).

The first announcement of the Mini-GT was about a 4,5A FET driver…

I don’t think you’ll get 4.5 Amperes with a buck driver on an XP-L (HI).

:D

Wow. That looks nice in the MF04S reflector!

With 2 18350 its possible to use my Buck driver regulated

unfortunately I only have a GT and a MF04S

I cannot kill one of them...

That’s a good video showing how bad that ledil lens is.
So much wasted and scattered light.
A single surface aspheric lens is the way to go.
