GFS16 - Battery Indicator Tailcap Light & 1mR FET Tailswitch! (Rev B)

I’ll take one

Shirnask and Inkidu have been added to the list.

Very interested - I'll take 2, saves me the trouble for sure Thanx!

I don’t think many people were reading along in this thread or they would have jumped all over Blue’s offer for the loneoceans fet switch with spring.

I’ll take 2 please, and thanks!

Never said free. Will probably sell it at cost, with shipping. It does cost money to actually make it.

It should be fairly easy to build.

Shhhh!

No prob there Blue!

BTW, I’m probably going to include the springs inside of the package if you don’t want/need a bypass, although not soldered for shipping not to explode.

A dual spring setup will easily be able to sustain 20A continuously.
Technically, it’s 21A for nickel plated, and 24A for silver plated, but it’s about the same number for me.

Blue, which super cap did you go with, if you don’t mind me asking.
I ordered 6 sets of oshpark boards.

Opps, I fixed it. :person_facepalming:

I haven’t ordered the super caps yet, but:

If you want, to lower costs, I can buy in bulk the components with you. Will ship them as quickly as possible.

Sounds good to me :+1:

I already purchased all the parts for both the led and fet boards x 6.
Ordered almost everything from Arrow and a few pieces from Mouser. Mouser charged me 8 bucks for shipping for what would fit in a soda bottle lid. :confounded:

Oh boy. Damn it.

That must have cost a kidney in shipping.

2 for me please. If there is any fet switches left. :+1:

Thanks. :beer:

2 more left I think.

Yep, 2 more left.

I should be receiving the PCBs next week.

I just realized one thing: I only have one spare Omten switch…

I’m going to have to order some.

I buy a bunch of these. It’s a 3 pack so keep that in mind.

They have a discount going on too. I just ordered some for I believe it was $1.08 for a 3 pack ordered 2.
Ordering more gets you into the 3 or more volume discount but its still a good deal.
The last order I placed a few months back was a 5 pack for these but the led’s were orange.
They looked cool but had a higher drain. Orange isn’t as efficient.
I’ll add that the resistor might need to be changed to something higher, the orange was too bright.
