Dang, really sad I missed out on this. New here and just learning about the TA + Narsil. Looks like exactly what I need for an upcoming mod. I look forward to batch number 4, if you choose to do another!
Got mine last week and forgot to post. They look good. Will be using the 30mm tomorrow when I rebuild my L6 using XHP70.2. Hopefully the current draw is reasonable. My KP 26650s all seem to have fairly high IR numbers, so I think it will be fine.
Youāll be fine with any 2S set-up, using 26650ās, I run the 70.2 P21A using the Sanyo IJoy and Efest 20700ās 19-20+ amps, in a Jax X6 Hunter, itās the Lumintop SD75 70.2 P2 1A 2S2P on Sony VTC5Aās at over 23-24+ amps is when the 70.2 turns BLUE in Turboā¦. till the batteries wear down a bitā¦
Iāve done that to two 50.2s now. Not sure about the 70.2 as the P2 1A I have used I have been nice to. The M2 30G 80+ CRI is going to go in the L6.
On the 50.2 it seems like a few times going blue is about all it can handle before it starts going blue using lower currents. Then half the emitter goes out.
Yep burned up a few of them 50.2ās, but the 70.2 is hanging tuff at up to 20 amps, Ive since run the older VTC5ās in the Lumintop, just a hint of blue for a short burst, assuming battery sag is kicking in, been working fine for the last 2 weeks, all 4 dies still looking good, 20 amps or less would be my guess for max current draw, if you want it to live some, my KPās were giving up like 15 amps in the X6 Hunter, so with their high capacity they would be the best all around battery, again just a guessā¦.
Worse case scenario if I toast them, Iāll re-flow the 4-70.2ās I have as spares and use normal batteries!
Yeah I have a P2 1A in a JKK36 host running only 4 to 5 amps and even that is almost as bright as my M2 30G XHP70 on DD. I also made a mistake, L6 is getting M4 30G 80+ 70.2, 1 bin brighter than my current 70.
ah ha! the wire size to the S70 is 18awg, and the wire size to the L6 is 22awg. remembering that i tried to solder 18awg on the L6 but couldnāt do it as it kept shorting with the reflector.
Oh cool! Itās good to know that 22ga can cut exactly 1.5 amp over 18ga.
A trick you can do with the wire is get the solder liquid and then remove the iron and quickly press down on the joint with something flat and metal. It will flatten the joint so that only the insulation will touch the reflector.
Installed my 30mm driver in the L6 today with an XHP70.2 M4 30G 80+ CRI, and a lighted momentary switch. Loving narsil. I did have to file the driver edges slightly to get it to fit the driver pocket, but no big deal. 18ga wire. Havenāt measured current yet, but its super bright. The L6 reflector also blends the tint of these new emitters well, I dont have much color shift at all in the beam.
