BanL, what about ∅9 mm reflector hole Osram 3030 gaskets? Can you source them? A suitable gasket for your K6 host I spoke about, let's say. A CSLPM1.TG emitter inside a K6 should make a very throwy torch.
Given how item information is presented in KD's page, where only a part of the description is shown under the item's picture (see miscellaneous parts, for example), it would be a lot more useful to list gaskets using a different description format. People looking for gaskets mainly look for “a emitter size and/or type gasket for reflector hole diameter”, and so this information should be at the beginning of every gasket description, in my opinion. Item descriptions seem to be limited to 50 useful characters, I have just checked and any long item descriptions measures exactly 52 characters long, including two dots at the end. This way, the description of the above gaskets, which right now looks like
10mm(D) x 0.8mm(T) White Plastic Insulation Gasket..
would, for example, instead say
3030 Osram gaskets for 7mm reflector hole, 10mm(D)..
It is a lot faster to find suitable gaskets this way, and this translates into a better shopping experience in my honest opinion. The character set in the descriptions, though, has something to do with AliExpress.
A thing to point out for BanL, is that Simon Mao (from the Convoy store) has ∅9 mm gaskets for 3030 emitters listed in his shop: Gasket suitable for 3030 LED and 9mm reflector hole. Simon may also be interested in ∅7 mm gaskets for 3030 emitters.
Message to be removed if BanL doesn't likes it. O:)
Wellp, I see people often complains about this tint preference thing, and over time I've come to conclude that it really doesn't bothers me much. I prefer close to BBL tints, and certainly don't complain at all seeing the light from my LH351D 4000K CRI90+ flashlights which technically is slightly greenish.
Quick question here, not exactly because I am interested right now but anyway I think it is good to be known. I saw an S3 21700 host available at Kaidomain some days ago. As options to choose from are orange peel or smooth reflector, and body colors in black, desert sand and purple. Would love to see photographs of the latter two.
Nice! The S3 looks like a great host for gifting lights to “advanced muggles”, aka non-flashoholic but technically competent recipients. Looks like SS bezel and integrated shelf?
Yes that S3 21700 looks gorgeous, in my honest opinion. I got an S21A host weeks ago, and honestly as much as I like that S3 it will have to wait for now. :((
