Ok thanks,70C is good enough for me. TN42 is automatically set at 80C[176F].
In Thermal configuration mode How does 1.CURRENT TEMPERATURE Calibration progress/transition into setting 2. Temperature limit? Is it a continuation or do other clicks have to be done to enter that phase?
Thanks
Thermal configuration
Look at a thermometer to check the current room
temperature. Let us assume it says 21 Celsius.
Turn the light off and wait for its temperature to settle
to room temperature.
Go to TempCheck (from OFF: āClick Click Clickā. Ascend
with double-clicks three times)
When you are in TempCheck, then click 4 times to enter
thermal config mode, and calibrate the sensor.
Thermal config mode has
two settings:
Current temperature
Calibration. Click once per
degree C to calibrate the
sensor. For our example,
the ambient temperature
is 21 C = click 21 times.
Temperature limit. This
sets the maximum
temperature the light can
reach before it will start
doing thermal regulation
to keep itself from
overheating. Click once
per degree C above 30. For example, to set the limit to
50 C, click 20 times. The default is 45 C (15 clicks).
Hint: If you donāt click, the lamp will leave the value
unchanged. The lowest value the user can set is 31 C,
by clicking once.
I just getting ready to pull the trigger! ,now wait is there a COUPON CODE? COULD NOT FIND ONE
Looks like a beautiful light, made well, obvious power and a fair price.No doubt with better results than the FT03 WITH SBT90 that has a faulty reflector. A lot of disappointed members, understandably so.
Now I just have to figure out the all the steps to change the thermal temp. regulations!
Thanks Hank,my first light form you. You seem very responsive and helpful and you are putting out a quality torch.
I ordered the 3000k one, I like warm throwers. Also since we donāt know the bin and cri, I assumed 3000K would render reds and brown better than the 4000k one.
After initially selecting 4000K, I switched to 3000 because I have yet to try a thrower that warm. I suspect itāll end up swapped to 4000K because I have those in 80 CRI (and on another continent, to be picked up when travel is a thing, in 90 CRI).
Just curious, is the K1 head diameter bigger than the FT03S head diameter?
If so, then the K1 with SBT90.2 should possibly out-throw the FT03S with SBT90.2?
Nope, been waiting for XHP35 for a while and ordered one in 4000K as soon as it was available. I have a couple lights with SBT90.2 but now Iām thinking I might need this one too. Waiting for KR4 E21a as well. My poor walletā¦
You can see the datasheets for example of Oslon Boost HL, there is no warm white for āwhite flatā.
There are roughly without getting into details, 6500K to 5000K, nothing warmer than that.
And you can easily suspect something at 5000K will be lower brightness than 6500K (as a brightness bin)
As for SBT90.2 you can also look into the datasheets and see 7000K, 6500K and 5700K are the only CCTs available, nothing warmer than that.
Itās the first boost driver Iāve ever gotten to run my code on. I donāt know what the efficiency will be like, but Iām guessing it should be significantly higher than any of the linear drivers currently in use. It probably also opens the door for running LEDs in series, and for mixing LEDs of different typesā¦ so Iām hoping to see more like it in smaller lights.
