Signed for 2 conversion kits. Is there a way to see the sign up results in google? IE total number of people etc?
For the Cool LEDs. My 2 cents is to absolutely go as cool as possible. Especially since a de-dome will lower the temp. I cant even tell you how many people have been blowing up my email because they want the laser like effect generated by the cool white.
Yes, it is all going into a spreadsheet now. When I have some free time I am going to figure out a way to transfer that over to the OP on a semi-regular basis so peopple can keep track of it.
Or I might also get a screen shot of the summery like this, although it doesn’t show the exact numbers:
We are still in the very early stages of looking for LED’s. What options there end up being will really depend on what we can find. I really want to stick with P2 bin so we are kind of at the mercy of what is available.
Runtime will depend on how bright you have it set. More output = more power naturally, just no way around that basic rule.
Far as actual runtime, I have not tested it exactly but I did let it run on turbo until LVP to test the thermal properties of the light.
Off the top of my head it was around ~1-1.5 hours till LVP kicked in but I did not time it and it was some time ago so take that with a heaping helping of salt.
Hi. I filled out the form but I checked my email and I don’t see any emails about a list of my answers as the form says I will get? Will it take a while or do I need to fill it out again?
Correct, I only got the TA prototype drivers for this light a few weeks ago and the production samples tested like 2 weeks ago.
Makes a pretty big difference with ~9-10A vs 6A.
VOB’s numbers line up pretty well with mine as well, so they should be pretty close.
I have not tested a de-domed version of the light with the TA driver yet that I can remember so the only numbers we have there are from VOB. I guessing 750kcd on the low side.
It will be a bit lower then VOB since he was using a 6000k emitter and meter bias causes it to read higher.
The light I tested yesterday was on the new Sphere calibration as well and using a Dr meter for the lux numbers.
At full brightness, that is about right, although it is direct driver so it will be dropping brightness as time goes along.
Remember the above estimate were till LVP, aka the batteries were dead.
Some basic math says we have a total of ~6000ma with both cell carriers filled with 30Q’s.
If we are pulling 9A, then on paper the cells should last around 40 mins.
Although in the real world with the power dropping 20 minutes at turbo before you notice it dimming is a good guess and then keep running for another hour+or so until it hits LVP.
