Thanks Hank! Ordered.

With Anduril as well! :+1: :beer:

Thanks for your suggestion. The thing is, once the order is marked as shipped, it only means that the package leaves our office, and it will take 2~3 days for the shipper to handle the packages, then the shipper will advise us the real “tracking number” at this time. That means, we do not have the final tracking number when the order is marked as “shipped”, that is why we always need to tell the customers
the tracking number by emails. But yes, we will think of a way to solve this problem.

Nice :slight_smile:
What bins are those leds? FB4 and HB4 or something different?

Mix different CCT without voltage matching you suggest? I mean you make a thoughtful suggestion but then omit such an important aspect.
Current goes to the path of least resistance, even if it would not be direct drive, yet it is direct drive, so some LEDs will get more current than others, one has to match the voltage bins for that, which is not as simple as it sounds.
Then how is the beam at short distances, it will be visibly mixed, which for me is unpleasant to see various CCTs.
You are thinking of situations where such mixing is done under like 50-75% frosted domes where you don’t even have a concentrated beam and are heavily diffused with a lot of optical losses.

Can’t wait.

What’s become of the remaining m43’s?

In practice this is not true. Most TIRs (Carclo and Ledil) I have tried mix the colors so well even at 1 meter you could not see various CCT. These individual TIR used in this light may not blend as well but that is yet to be seen.

Which one of those exact optics have you used?

Are the Samsung 30Q cells you are offering on this page button tops?

Agro, we have been told that this has two banks of 7135. 1 and X14.

Running from the X14 bank, the 18 LEDs should be being PWMed or continuous at about 270 mA each. Or 290 mA if both banks are used, which would be my guess.

Is that not sufficient to allay your concerns ?

Have started saving and will buy, as soon as the 18350 tube is available.

Meanwhile my MF01 (second edition, Nichia, pristine) is available, UK only offers accepted.

I am curious, Tom Tom, which emitter will be your choice in this?

I had the 4000K 95CRI in the cart just moments ago but realized there was no short tube listing yet… also waiting.

Carclo 10621 (Luxeon V2 4K and 5K)
Ledil ANNA-40 (LH351D 4K and 5K)
Ledil CUTE-4-M (Luxeon MZ 3000K 5700K)

I will try soon BLF Q8 with LH351D 3K and 5K

Even in a Sofirn C8F with a triple reflector, 3 different tints blend very close to the source. :wink:

Is that price correct for 3x 30Q’s? $35.80?

No, by far. Maukka’s test:


4A per emitter is great, 2A is fine, less gets worse.

seems a bit high ,shouldnt cost more then 5-6$ each even if button tops… ?

I have a solution! Run ~3A to each emitter and when you ramp up and down it turns on/off one emitter at a time from the inside out in a spiral pattern.

According to my theoretical calculations, every LED will get 2.6A in turbo. The whole will absorb about 160W. I have a question for Hank, is the weight given on the site with or without packaging, whether with or without batteries?

Driver design nightmare. :confounded:
