Well…I wouldn’t go buying any XP-L2s anytime soon. I got 4 in today, planned on using one of them in a S2+ host and the other three in a X6 triple. They may be fine in a triple but they aren’t worth a crap when used as a single led on 16mm noctigon in combination with a fet and a 30Q or VTC6. They just turn blue and die in turbo mode. I’ve got two left, I don’t know how much it costs to ship to Amsterdam (I have djozz in mind) but I would like to send these to someone that has the equipment to test them so no one wastes their money on something that’s not going to work for them.
Huh, so as expected they have a super low vF like the XP-G3s to to point where they are at the limit or over in direct drive. I only see potential there, means a number of them together will still run hard when the battery is sagging running at it’s very limits. :smiling_imp: Or maybe that’s just me.
The lower Vf isnt the problem, we can always manage it, the problem is that its core is bigger, cant be dedomed properly ( still trying though, already ruined 5) and still we have only lower bins, we dont even have V6
XP-G3 domes are similar to those from XT-Es and they were not made for use with reflectors. Mostly for street lightening and lenses like Ledil Strada and etc. Not sure you will be so dissapointed with them under any frosted TIRs.
