I remember looking at this light a while back but passed on it as it can’t tailstand and only has one mode. The anodization colors are quite unique though. I hope the High CRI version will make an appearance at Amazon US. Skilhunt store asks for $6 shipping on a $11 light… ughh
edit: yes I realize $6 shipping is reasonable, no need to point that out to me.
I wonder what resistor level would give a good 25-30 lumens for a few hours? That would be a good balance for output vs runtime. That would be a fairly easy mod to swap that resistor.
It’s a PAM2803 so feedback voltage is 95mV. Current to LED = 0.095 volts / R_SET. Either figure out the desired current, and therefore the resistance… Or maybe just quadruple the existing resistance.
I got the high CRI version from Amazon. Slate blue is the only color available now but that was my top pick anyhow. It is a little more expensive at $12.90.
Woah! I searched before posting earlier. I didn’t see ANY E3A on Amazon at all. I guess my fingers disobeyed me or my eyes deceived me. Ordered the Slate Blue High CRI. I had an Amazon GC to use up, too. Big thanks for the heads up!
About to break down and buy this and the m200 as well. Only 1 XPL cw left on Amazon… I’ll swap emitters inevitably so no reason waiting for a 351d version. Really impressed with Skilhunt and honestly don’t know why they don’t get more attention here.
M150 had two UI config options. One for hold-for-off and like 7 modes. The other option was click-for-off with 4 modes. The weird thing was it ramped up and back down instead of looping around.
About a month or two ago they updated the M150 UI (making it more like the M200?) but I haven’t messed with the updated UI.
Yes. For a cold rod it may be a really nice host but I don’t care about cold rods - and that’s why I was disappointed.
Actually for a FRP PCB light this has a pretty good thermal path, much better than f.e. DQG Tiny…but I would be wary about putting a 10440 in it.
