I think heat conductivity works both ways, as it’s only one thing. It’s how fast the material transfers energy through it. The processes of heating and cooling down both involve energy transfer. But if we were talking two heatsinks of the exact same size, I could see the much heavier copper taking a little longer to fully cool down because it has much more mass to it, but that’s only if more energy was ran through it in the first place (ie 2 minutes of turbo vs 1 minute)
If we took copper and aluminum and allow both to absorb the heat from turbo for the same time, the higher thermal conductivity of copper means it should completely shed its heat faster than aluminum.
In that same manner though, if the copper were exposed to a level of heat that didn’t oversaturate it within seconds (turbo output), I would imagine it could allow the light to sustain a higher level of constant brightness than the aluminum heatsink.
Same here. Would like to see PIC’s as proof also… a copper core pressed into an Aluminum finned head might have been better, it works really quite well in my 19 amp 4200lm 3v 50.2 IRA.
But I sure like that Copper head!!!
Did a copper pill X6 3v 50.2 also…it’s quite Heavy…
Depending on price, interested in clear aluminum + copper head, though I’d like to know the price breakdowns for full copper or TI body. 5000k XP-L HI with red secondaries if at all possible.
Interested in Cu head + Al body clear ano but depending on weight.
The Astrolux S43S is already on the heavy side for me so i’m not optimistic for the E07 copper head with its 10 mm shelf.
fantastic news. I left my order with banggood active for a long time without too much hope that it would ship. It even had the apply for refund option active. Today I checked and it did indeed ship.
