A lot of people at CPF were ordering 2T, but I got 2B. If you want cool white, 1C should do it, but it's hard to say since these things tend to trend towards green. The group buy turned out to be 10 each of 1D, 2T, and 2B.
Cree is probably laughing at us because they are all exactly the same . . .
It is between 6500 and 7000 K (equal-to and slightly-cooler than the standard daylight temperature D6500). The same as the light at an overcast day at noon. No greenish or purple dominance.
It has a purple green tinge on the edge [ depending on emitter ] One of mine has a purple outer edge , the other a green outer edge , whilst the middle of the beam is white to Neutral ...
Very strange ... But only really noticeable to the camera and white walling ...
Though I did get some warmer [ less cool ] tints from cutter [ Havent used them as yet ]
At this time many of you got their XM-L dropins i believe (except me). So... How did you find your P60 host of choice regarding thermals? Suitable or barely usable? I heard the C8 host revieved here did perform spledidly in all spects.
I ordered an L2P for my p60 drop-in (which will be shipped in a couple of days hopefully), along with the KD C8 of course :)
Pity, KD sent an SDHC adaptor instead of a 3A 2x18650 driver. I'll have to postpone my double battery XM-L project. Everything was ready, TR1200 body, MC-E reflector and a T5 star. I almost knew that they wouldn't meet at the same point. :)
Could be the cells, could be heat. If I can rig up a current probe, I can stick it on the lightbox and measure current from the cell. Still can't get the meters to play nicely with Linux so that I can log more than one thing at a time.
No, I'm a Mac guy but have Solaris, Linux, Windows boxes around. Until earlier this year, I was planning to replace my Linux fileserver (with 11 year old hardware in it) with a box running Solaris and ZFS.
These days a fileserver is a lot less necessary than it used to be with cheap external hard drives and a gigabit network.
The software is not great - internally the meter appears to have some sort of strange UART in it, with a USB converter half-heartedly bolted on. The meter appears to be a rebadged Peak Tech 4390
The place I got it from no longer sells it unfortunately and has deleted the links to driver updates.
