BLF Interest List: EX3 High Current Beryllium Copper Silver Plated springs - Still selling my springs :)

Ok thanks!

My order came in today. Package is beyond the capacity of even USPS to mess up. (probably should not say that, they never cease to amaze me with their ability to destroy my packages)

All in order, Thanks again BlueSwordM!

Finally got around to throwing together a convoy S2+ with triple SST-20s and I’m super happy with them. They really are gorgeous. Best looking SST-20s I’ve seen yet and just a hair behind dogfarts for me as far as preference goes. Thanks again BlueSwordM!

What’s with the Samsung LH351D pejoratively called “dogfarts”?

SPHWHTL3DA0GF4RTS6. That’s the part number.

HaHa! :laughing:

I would have never seen that, if you hadn’t pointed it out!

It’s not kind to this emitter.
Granted Samsung didn’t give it a “nifty” name as Cree does, but to dig and construe a less than flattening surname from the part number would not be in my vocabulary. Most probably Pwsmith didn’t coin this, so not to take personally.

just FYI I built a S2+ with single sided LD-A4 driver (it has large spring pad) and used gen 2 large springs on both ends. Flat tops fit perfectly and the elasticity was not an issue

Some lowbrow clowns on /r/flashlight are the ones who started calling it “dogfarts”. :stuck_out_tongue: :person_facepalming:

It’s an LED… It’s not your girlfriend, I don’t think a stupid nickname is going to hurt it’s feelings.

Is Digikey the best US based source for them now?

Their price and shipping is lower than arrow’s super high $12.99 shipping.

Just a word of caution but one of my LEDs died (broken bond wires) when I dropped the optic into my H03 from a height of about 1 cm. They seem to be quite fragile. The ones on my triple board have been fine.

@jasontheguitarist, the best source for LH351Ds is indeed Digikey.

@thisnameisvalid, quite unlucky.

Do SST-40s pose the same problem?

Something special…

I would be interested six sst-20 if/when available.

I also need some SST-20 FD2’s please…. If possible.

My SST-20 LEDs came in the mail today! Like others have said, they were very well packaged. I have a Convoy S2+ triple host patiently waiting for them. I was a little worried that they may not work given the issue that jasontheguitarist had, but after my second reflow ever, I’m happy to report that they work great. Thank you BlueSwordM for making these available!

My LED’s arrived yesterday, like many I have an S2+ triple waiting, also a FF PL47 to repair if I can ever find a lens and get it back together again :smiley:

Thank you BSM, your time and effort are greatly appreciated.

Have all of these been shipped out now?

Yes. Everything has been shipped out.

Did you get my message?
