Can anyone confirm what mcpcb is shipped. The description and picture are that of a “XHP50 on 20mm Star TPAD MCPCB” yet further along that same line is 16mm round. Also, when added to the cart “COLOUR BINS:
1D (6250 KELVIN) PCB SIZE: 16MM
LED MOUNTING OPTIONS:
ROUND PCB”
lol its 3am here give it a few hours maybe in like 7 hours they will be in. Cutter is also a member here on BLF.
I have made many orders at Cutter but shipping gets me every time its $12 AUD from Melbourne where they are to Sydney. Makes me cry considering i can get a flight for like $60 lol.
I hear you. The live chat says “We’re Online!” and I’m anxious these will all got bought up. It has been so long since I bought from Cutter my login doesn’t work. I ended up buying the bare led without the login.
As a side note, I’ve got some interesting stuff from down under. Look familiar?
I would hope to get 16A into it with a good low IR cell and FET driver. From Texas Ace’s test of the 6V XHP50.2, at 8A, or 4A per die, the voltage is 6.78V. So with all dies in parallel it should be about 3.39V at 4A per die, or 16A total. So this should be doable if the total circuit resistance (including cell) is 50 mOhms.
welight - thanx for posting here! I ordered qty 2 bare w/free shipping. could you explain what shipping service is used? How long approx. to the US?
EasyB - didn't think bout 16A, but it all makes sense. Getting 4000-5000 lumens from 1 LED and 1 cell with one of our simple FET drivers is pretty cool! Basically the mod could be done as a simple LED swap to an existing XM-L2 FET light we have now, just a lot more heat.
Yea i defiantly will next time i am down.
I went 3 years in a row to the bodybuilding comp there but i stopped when they changed the date to the same weekend time as the F1 its busy for me. Before it was on Moomba festival weekend. Around the same time there is the Phillip island classic that’s worth a look also, I’d love to go back.
What a nice emitter, great find! Too bad this isn’t kaidomain or arrow, the shipping costs deter me from ordering it (although the costs are kind of understandable from AU to my location - just not worth it for 1 LED).
