this sounds logical
when I see in my mind how the inside of the head is made, I visualise a big drill with a pointm doing it in one go.
3 recessed spots would mean, three extra actions and an extra tool to use.
However looking the other way around, it would mean raising the internal shelf around the stars giving more mass, more heat dispersion.
Exactly, precisely what I meant.
Though, I think the inside will be machined on a lathe, so that means that it has to go to a mill after the lathe. That means that they have to program an extra machine. Or they use a 5 axis machinecenter.
An other option would be screws to fit the 16mm Noctigon. If there is enough space for the wires under the reflector, of course.
A combination of screws and recessed spots would be fine. But please do not glue the Noctigon to the heatsink.
A problem could be the exact fitting of the LED-Boards. I remember the BLF A6 with some bad fitting boards which were forced and warped to the heatsink
I'd prefer one big copper DTP MCPCB with the 4 XP sets of pads, big fat traces for parallel setup, and 1.6 mm thick (same as a Noctigon). Easy wiring, big advantage thermally. I know - I'm dream'n .
Tripod sounds really fine and ui with hidden strobe, but 1” full 3-4” moon and again 1 second…
About the name everything is fine, except the year (2016) i dont like ;-))
Well we are starting this up.
It will take tie to get to final specs and have the light produced.
When that happens the people will receive a discount code via PM and order.
After that the same lights are often kept on sale but at a higher price.
