same battery?

To be fair, “XP-L quad” and “super bright” are frequently just a few words apart. They’re practically synonyms.

Same battery…VTC6.

yes xpl quad are usually “super bright”…but damn this one knocks out all the quads i have! Easily over 4000 lumens at turn on.

4.5 amps per led seems fine .

Check driver wires and bypasses in your other setups . Could be the fet too , but not such a big difference .

same drivers, batteries and LEDs…the only difference is the host. I love it, but i wish all the other quads are this bright!

Probably less resistance through the host, and possibly lower vF on that batch of LEDs.

Out of caution, however, I would want to make sure that the LEDs are getting proper heatsinking---does the amp draw rise significantly after turn on? That is a bigger variance than I would normally expect.

Thanks! It is really hard for me to find the time to make videos, etc., but I'm trying to get better about it and set some time apart each week to work on it. Unfortunately it is usually late at night when I'm pretty tired. Can you tell?

I was thinking about putting one of your light bars on my Drag Bike, you know for those Lights out, night time Grudge matches, but then adding another battery would add too much weight! :smiley:

But I did buy a new truck ! :wink: I thought it was a great video Richard!

I wish I had something to mount one of those bars onto. Unfortunately, I sold my Corolla a few years ago :smiley:

What did you end up with?

Here is a quick beam shot comparison video:

What I always buy, a GMC SLT Z71 :+1:

Nice truck! Half ton, or bigger?

1500,but it’s a 4X4, I just need to pull my 7.5’x14’ race trailer, 2 Drag Bikes, not into Horses or Farm stuff! :smiley:

I know that a few of you have been waiting for them for a while now, but they have finally arrived :

Nichia 219C D240 4000K - 90+ CRI

Very interesting price… :+1:

I built a triple with XP-L2s of the 4000k variety and don’t like the tint. Will the Nichia 219Cs in 90+ cri and 4000k tint be any better?

Ugh, I built a quad XP-L2. I was hoping that the multi-emitter setup would help blend the tints and make it bearable. Still pretty ugly IMHO. But Nichia? Not sure I’ve seen a Nichia that I didn’t like the tint of.

If you like warm tints , you will love their tint .

Edit : lol , fixing the images now / Edit2 : fixed

So the XPL2 fits in the 10507 triple optic but not other triple optics, right? Does it fit in the quad optics, 10621 and 10623?

10621 yes---10623 I'm assuming no. 10621 is basically the same optic as 10507 and 10623 is pretty much the same as 10508.
