Can u test the lumen/lux also? Using the same light with the dedome sst40, xpl, and xpg2?

I have no way to measure lumen, but I’ll measure the candela for sure!
That dedomed tint looks fantastic Sledgestone!
I wonder if this stuff is the same as what you used… This one claims 99.7% pure Toluene

Yeah, that’s the stuff.
500ml is a nice amount, USA seller, shipping to NL would be either impossible or very expensive…
That should be the same.
Mine is 100% pure though, but that shouldn’t make a difference.

I am very confident sst40 dedome outthrow xpl dedome in both lumen and lux… I need opinions from you. Thanks.

Well the SST-40 will have much more lumen and I think throw should be similar. But the SST-40 will run much hotter at over 8 amps vs the XP-Ls 6 amps.
Well, whaddayaknow…

€19.48 shipped from DE to NL.
Ordered and payed just now.

Hey, that’s a fairly good deal too.
New listing? Hadn’t found it previously, or maybe i thought it was too expensive… (?)
Ordered this to try out… $35.09 shipped….http://www.ebay.com/itm/Toluene-Toluol-1000-mL-32-fl-oz-/201393760689?hash=item2ee400e9b1:g:I7QAAOSwDNdVsQ2r
MEK hot or cold just ain’t getting it for me….
Oooh - KB, you beat me to it, but that was a help . I got an unused can of MEK sit'n around. Keep us posted - it's expensive though but interested to see if it works.
I had hoped that you guys would have held out until I’ve had the time to do more testing
Vinh stopped fully removing SST-40 domes, now he shaves them. He says it gives him the same throw, but better output.

Your picture of the nitro thinner dedomed SST-40 next to the toluene dedomed SST-40 shows exactly why we should use toluene.
The greenish tint is all to familiar to chemical dedomers, we all want the other result (right one in the picture).
Also, the fact that a tough dome like SST-40 is gone after a short while, and without heating the solvent, is another reason to get pure toluene.
Hotspot with toluene dedoming is also visibly larger, which should mean silicone is not completely removed, smaller tint shift also indicates that.
What driver can I use for this diode to achieve 6V Vf?

Hmm… You might be right…
This could also be because of different C8 hosts. I couldn’t completely screw the bezel down on the Toluene one. So it might just be different focus.
Edit: I’ll swap the mcpcb in both host and check if it makes a difference on the hotspot.

I use only nitro paint thinner and tint shift is nearly invisible . I don’t know why he got such a warm tint , seems really weird …
Yeah, that is weird. But as far as I know everyone else who uses nitro thinner gets the green tint shift. Do you boil the liquid? Does yours contain acetone?
What do you mean by tint shift is nearly invisible? Does it still turn slightly green?
