Richard, love the new quad boards! The beam is really more rounded!!! It does seem that I have more trouble getting the parts to settle in at the correct location with this board, not sure why. Any idea? Hot plate reflows for the leds and hot air for the jumpers. The leds just would not settle on the pads. Otherwise great product!

Probably heating either to fast or too slowly, or not the correct amount of paste. These pads center way better than the TPAD quad due to the overflows on the side pads and rounded overflow on the center pads. I always fought the TPAD quads, but these center up nicely.

I do not have to touch the LEDs at all on these (with good pads and correct amount of paste and correct reflow profile you shouldn't have to ever touch the LEDs during reflow).

I sent some messages to see about the Aspires. If they are really 1000+ mAh then that's a huge capacity jump and well worth having.

I just put in a big order this afternoon, if you start carrying the aspire 18350s amd restock the 26350s I’m gonna go broke!

1+ on the aspire and 26350’s

Damn, just ordered 8 of them Aspires! :person_facepalming: SOAB! :smiley:

Same here after seeing what a XHP70.2 can do…

What can you say about your upcoming cube lights?

Good evening Richard, I am about to place an order for several XPL Hi Leds and a VT6 battery, Do you have XHP70.2 LED on order? if so What tint and bin? Looking for a 1A tint in the highest bin available…

Thanks!

Not to take any business away from RMM but Digikey has the XHP70.2 P2s in stock now.

Thanks for the link djburkes, by any chance do you know which of the E2 tints (2A, 2B, 2C, 2D) are they shipping?

I’m really not too sure on how to decipher the bins…here’s the link to what they have in stock.

Alex, that’s exactly why I don’t buy emitters from digikey or Mouser, they sell a group bin and you can’t ever rely on what you’re going to end up with.

Where do you usually buy yours from? Trying to figure out the bins gives me a headache…

I get mine from digikey, I just order the easywhite bins, they are all within a macadams ellipse, so you at least know a range it will fall in. All the different color bins are too much for me to worry about, so far I haven’t gotten anything I didn’t like.

I ordered 3 5700k N4s the other day and put one in a MT07 and did a resistor mod…turned out nicely.

I buy emitters from Richard, or Cutter, or LEDDNA and occasionally from Intl Outdoors. Probably won’t be buying from Cutter though, everything just got out of hand on that end.

No, they do not sell group bins.
The part number describes exactly what bin it is.
XHP70B-00-0000-0D0BP250E-ND
for example, this is LED is chromacity group 50E, min flux group P2, CRI group B (70 cri), etc etc etc

All you have do to is read the data sheet and scroll down to page 22.

Or you can literally just sort by lumen output or CRI or whatever spec you want directly on the digikey/mouser website by clicking the top of a column.

For non 3 or 5 step easywhite leds 50E is group tint which can contains any from A/B/C/D tint with fixed color temperature.

Richard, any chance you might get some of the black E2L Jaxman hosts?
