New VirEnce MCPCB for E17/E21/119/144/233U

Good idea!
But it still has the same problem as clemence’s PCB. The heat of LED is, according to him, distributed evenly through both contacts,

Interested. I never tried other footprint LEDs because there were no boards for them.
1* and 4* 16 mm is a good choice to start with.

With Cree coming with the NX leds and now Osram with the compact Ceramos led your 16mm board may become more and more interesting for small flashlight use.

Any updates?

The last update was that the proto should be shipped within 5 weeks. That means it’s still 3 weeks to go

Ok, thanks.

Looking forward to those quad boards. Plan to use 4 of them with a quad optic, 16 total emitters, then put a large diffuser over the front to make a high CRI lantern. Host is a JKK36 from Kaidomain.

Will be a nice emergency lantern since it uses 3x18650 for good runtime, and has a built in power bank function in the cell holder. So I can charge my devices with it at night, and charge the lantern with a solar panel during the day.

Update: 171016:

- 60 pcs prototypes shipped!

Not any more…

Meaning?

The pic can’t be seen

Ah sorry about that. I changed the privacy policy of my albums…. accidentally in batch. Fixed many but I posted like hundreds of pictures, missed this one too. That was stupid, changed the policy back to it’s original state didn’t fix it. I have to do it manually one by one.
As for the picture, it’s not relevant anymore since the final designs are those in the OP. I’m still making my own test rig so don’t have to always overload Djozz with my test requests.

Yes, I would like to see final product. I enjoy nice pics so when someone says “Eye candy” but the pic is not available that is kinda let down :wink:

Shipment released from the custom! :laughing:

  1. Prototypes received, OP updated with the preview

They look Great! Sorry to hear they are super expensive. Once they are up on the store I’ll be picking up a few regardless as I have some projects that could benefit.

16mm single 144

There is no space to place the insulating gasket?

With such flexible options in 16mm you don’t have much room left. You better use kapton, electrical tape, or epoxy to make needed insulation.

They look very attractive! I will surely be in for some, no matter what price they will be, more of course when they are affordable :slight_smile:

Just when we though they couldn’t be more pricey, then the custom added some 40% more to the bill…… :expressionless:
I’m still trying to simulate your Djozz test here. The only datum to your test is the S3030 VirEnce board, 144AM sm653 R70, and the TASI meter test. Will report the test ASAP.
