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

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.

No, don’t worry. Still on the way.

I’ve had 2 anomalies with Europe shipments this time, which did reach destination, but took a long time for some reason.

It’s only been 2 weeks for you, which is very slow compared to usual(shipped on Thursday evening a bit less than 2 weeks ago), but I’ve had orders take 2x as long as usual.

I’d wait another 2 weeks from now to be worried.

Hello,
I would like to purchase 20pcs Large and 20pcs Small BeCu springs please.

I am in USA, CA. Ready to make payment anytime.

Ok guys.

So, I’ve finally shipped to everyone who has paid and responded on Friday, which is nice.

Anyway, I’ve messaged people on Wednesday who still haven’t responded and paid about their LED orders, so will wait until Wednesday.

If the people messaged do not respond before Wednesday morning, I will have some LEDs left.

So, since there still seems to be some demand for the FD2s*, I’ll sell them to the people wanting below(will PM them on Wednesday) with their spring order too

1. likevii: 20x of each size BeCu 3rd Gen spring + 3/8 SST-20s FD2*
2. Lund1660: x SST-20s FD2*
3. KevinZA1988: x SST-20s FD2*
4. contactcr: 10x large and 10x small 3rd Gen BeCu springs

*Orders with SST-20s
