This looks like a super drop-in! It would be ever better if we can just piggyback some 7135's for higher current.
All that this drop-in needs is an operating voltage of 2.7v - 9v, so that you can use either with 1 x 18650 or 2 x 18650
Thnx Hank!

3A is enough on a P60 dropin.... and send me some wine. ;-)

After thinking about it in a while, pulled the trigger for a 3A NW dropin.

Hikelite:
According to some statistics this website is visited by 355 Chinese IPs everyday.
Other interesting one is that 45% of the persons visiting this website then go to CPF, 22% go on google, rest well they go on DD, DX, KD.....
I've seen several times Selfbuilt's photos on taoboa.
How did you get those infos?

Thanks. Probably good enough for estimates.

I can't find any clear info about the driver. Anyone know what IC this one uses? I'd like to program one, but I can only do Atmel chips so far.

Anyone recieved theirs?
First impressions?
Not received yet here, waiting patiently...
edit: almost 3 weeks gone, should be here soon...
Does anybody here know what will happen when the thermal protection kicks on for this drop-in? Will it turn off or drop into a lower mode?
My new Neutral White - T6 3C dropin came yesterday. It took about 2 weeks.
I put it in an L2P host and tested draw at the tail using a fresh Tennergy 2600...
High: 3.0 Amps
Medium: 1.05 A
Low: .08 A
The driver is blue and is marked V10+.
About 6 months ago I got one of the first batch of 25 of XinTD C8's. That C8 driver looks the same and has the same marking. At that time, some posters questioned whether the driver was any good. I have not had any trouble with that driver.
I turned the L2P on and left it on a table for 15 minutes. The light was very warm to touch but had not failed or changed mode due to heat.
I am happy.

Could you tell if there was any PWM in the lower levels please?
I did not see PWM on any mode.

Good to hear that, hopefully I'll receive mine by next week. wanted to compare it against my NW dropin with KD 3040ma driver.

You can check using a camera on your phone. I know there's PWM as I already asked Hank about it. Just wondering if its bad.

If it is the same driver as in the XinTD, which I think it maybe you can check my PWM tests here

Scroll down to post #15, around 8Mhz and 37%duty!
I have one on route so I will compare and confirm

Others have measured 4200-4500hz for the Nanjg 105C. I can also detect it with my camera on low at 5% duty cycle, mostly a useless test/check as long as the eyes cannot see it (but if one struggles can see it in shower water on medium an low). I think it would be impossible for anyone to even pick anything up at 8Mhz.

My XinTD C8 that has the V10+ marked driver was one of the first batch of 25. Later batches of the light use the Nangj 105C driver.
The pic at your thread shows that you have the 105C.

Fair enough, I wasnt completely happy with the method used, I connected a XRe directly to the probe input and shone the torch on to it in a dark room. The meter is calibrated often and reliable as its used daily for machine calibration checks. Can you suggest abother method I can use?
