Think same. Which host specifically suited best for sbt90.2?

Read carefull...4x18

The Quad 18650 host, all batts in parallel, perfect fit for a current hog like the SBT90.2!
Optional FET driver that we could replace would be great

[Lux-Perpetua]

Didn't Dale (DBCustom) build a beast ("Ham'r") with multiple FETs in joint circuitry for way more than 20,000lm using a whole bunch of LH351Ds below some carclos?

Anyway, 4x18A....geeez....that's 72A which equals in way over 250W! What host is able to sustain and dissipate so much heat? Please don't come with some active cooling by ventilation. Rotating, moving parts in a flashlight... :FACEPALM: It will probably take 4x Samsung 30T or 4x Molicel P42A in 4P configuration to get this amount of power without collapsing springs or batteries going nuclear. :-D

I did not mean to joke at all. The light you have linked to is for sure not consuming 4x 18A. It's just a light named "4x18A" but it's one and only XHP70.2 cannot drain more than approx. 18-22A from all 4 batteries. Anything beyond would burn this LED.

[oweban]

It’s an interestingly titled host, that’s for sure. But put it in 4P and the SBT90 would do quite nicely.

Edit:: it’s already in 4P sigh. Or even the M21C-U - cap it at 20-25A and away you go.

[Lux-Perpetua]

I should have read more carefully. Sorry for my misunderstanding. Reading “4x 18A” I was thinking, someone wanted to put 4 (four!) SBT90.2 into one single host.

[texas_shooter]

Convoy M3 at 15-18 amps would be a nice and smaller host. Very heavy light to control some of that wattage. Even the M21C-U has good potential. I’m more into single cell lights.

You need more power for such a high current consuming light, this host is one of the best currently available without the need to redesign it

Hey, what were these little doodads?

I looked through the descriptions on the first page, and nothing jumped out at me.

Ive always wondered this myself

[oweban]

I think they were AAA Ti lights. Must not have ever eventuated.

LH351D 4000K will be available in this month

Thanks Simon!

@SKV89

I’m seriously impressed that Convoy is planning to try the SBT90.2. It’s a VERY EXPENSIVE emitter and Convoy lights are known to be real budget lights.

Simon, if you are planning to explore high end emitters, I recommend the Oslon CULNM1.TG Boost HL, which is the higher power version of the CSLNM1.TG or the CULPM1.TG Boost HX, which is the higher power version of the CSLPM1.TG.

Right now only Manker is using the CULNM1.TG because they were nearly unobtainable previously. Skylumen also mods lights using the CULPM1.TG. Would be sweet if Convoy can source these rare emitters.

I think it is not difficult for me to get it.

They are AAA titanium alloy flashlights, I posted the pictures just to see if you are interested in them

Sweet! If you can get the Boost Hx and Boost HL, that would really give Convoy the edge! :+1:

Simon, any progress on 4x18 e-switch (ramping?) sbt90.2 host?

And M21C sideswitch?

Yes, e-switch will make Convoy a killer light. But please use newest version of the firmware,

Please also update the reverse clicky drivers with something equivalent.

i will add a link of M21C side switch tomorrow
1.single click, turn on/off . press and hold the button to enter into ramping
2.flashlight off, press and hold the button>moonlight
3.flashlight on/off, double clicks> turbo
4.flashlight off,three clicks> strobe
5.flashlight off,four clicks> tactical mode
6.flashlight off,five clicks>Battery voltage detection
7.flashlight off,six clicks>switch to 4modes(1–10–30–100)
8.flashlight off,ten clicks>flashlight is locked

The flashlight has temperature control protection and low voltage protection.

Great news, at least for me… as I’m not a tail clicky guy.

Thanks Simon. Order placed for M21C-U.

Funtastic found the CULPM1.TG Boost HX available in AliExpress (originally posted here).

[oweban]

Out of curiosity - what size MCPCB is in the Z1? That with the CULPM1 (if 4040 MCPCBs are around)…

[ggf31416]

Second that, PM1 + Z1 should have good throw in zoomed in mode while still having good output in flood mode, and it’s rated at 5A and can easily take 6A from the SST40 linear drivers (or more from the ‘ramping’ one), after all Simon doesn’t like to overdrive emitters, it helps keeping disputes low. I know that zooming flashlights are jack of all trades, master of none, but sometimes the tradeoff is rather useable. Edit: the Boost (U) 2 mm2 version have higher rated limits, 6.6A, 8A pulsed, 10A surge. The Boost 1 mm2 version have rated limits 3.3A/4A/5A but in practical terms it should work with the 5A driver even if out of warranty, but don’t expect many lumens, peak is at about 6A but output is only 5% more than at 5A, it’s useless risk.
