I was technically sold out but I looked through the leftover parts and realized I had enough parts to put together 2-3 more if I order the missing pieces. I should have 2 or 3 that can be put together if anyone else wants a last shot at these.
I’ll charge up a couple 30Q’s and test for you. Before I received the calibration lights I wasn’t getting more than 2850 lumens and at that time it was reading slightly high.
I think the consensus was the CW was around 3100 to 3200. The NW was a bit less. These might be older readings, I’m not sure.
My L6 has long been modded. I did just recently buy a Thorfire S70S and test it out. It should be very similar in output to the L6 since the current draws are very close. I measured it at 2930 to 3000 lumen depending on the battery I used. Link is in my signature.
I should also point out that my tube is not a TA one. It’s one I made, which I think validates the idea that were all heading in about the same direction.
Hey Matt, have you used your new lumen tube to measure the gbx3590 GT you built? I think the led is rated for 3.6A (14,000 lumen), but the driver can only do 3.2A so it’s not being pushed hard. I’m curious what you measure. At least 10k lumen? Maybe 12k?
I did play around with it. IIRC it gave me right at 14k. This week and next I am doing a lot more serous testing that includes some descent climate control and as many other variables as I can squash so I will re-test that light as well in the batch.
Hey everyone! First of all, big shout-out to Texas Ace for building me another tube. I took some measurements of my lights (I don’t have Maukka’s calibration lights yet) and figured I’d post my results here too in case anyone was curious.
