there is nothing obvious going from like FET+6+1 to 3+1, 2+1 or 1+1 need editing for good ramping behavior
removing all middle AMCs of course needs 2 channel ramping tables but on the 3 channel pinout
Wow, those must be exceptionally bad amc7135 chips. Usually I see them light up somewhere around 5 to 10 (out of 255). I wonder how companies acquire good ones.
Thanks Lexel. I have a couple of my smaller lights that I want max linear to something lower and improve efficiency at mid levels. They can’t sustain 7 AMC output for long anyways. Might improve performance with 3S nimh/alkaline too (for backup) but not sure. So probably 3, 4 or 5 AMCs on the middle channel. Will test which one is best for me. Would not want to remove all of them cause that would defeat the purpose.
I need 28mm. I would like to use with quad xpl. What is the maximum current for 1S and 2S?
One more thing. I don’t follow your threads regularly. Do you have boost drivers for xhp35 hi and 2S?
I thought they would be ready in early 2018, but they have been delayed, a lot. I kind of gave up on them coming out. MTN E has a couple of boost drivers, but I don’t think the e-switch versions are available yet. Just the tail switch ones.
Just wanted to say that my current set of EDC lights and my “soon to be finished” modded light are all using Lexel’s drivers with Bistro HD OTSM firmware.
I am using 15mm, 17mm and 22mm drivers !
Thanks for your work
How would you suspect 1 of 6 not working, by turning on a level that’s 100 duty cycle on them and measuring the current?
Maybe pouring some rubbing alcohol and watching it evaporate would show the one not working? On 5 it evaporates quick, but on one it evaporates slower.
