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

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?

Yes.

Already prepped your order.

Will send you payment when I’m back from work.

Received a well packaged envelope from Canuckistan. The springs are gorgeous, they'd fit in a :-D necklace.

Found a small issue, though:

Looked and looked everywhere, yet I miss a 3rd gen small spring.

Springs and leds came unharmed today, thanks for doing this Blue. :+1:

@Barkuti, I’ll check your order picture. Should yield the numbers you gave me. Will check once I’m home.

@mod007, excellent. :slight_smile:

I’m really sorry guys and gals if this GB took so long.

I worked much more this summer compared to last year, which is why.

I still haven’t received my leds and springs.
Should i worry?
The previous orders came very quickly.
