I mean, should CULPM1 be consider 1 Km light contender? Not below 1 km as such the sst40 I supposed so…this is consider thrower light stage two.
That would mean, the same level as the W’s which now had claimimg 2km.
Most of led that surpass 1km, it seem they ussually had a tight beam, for its reason. Its looks tight at closer but what it really matter is in the long distance. It like buggati Veron for long distance vs gtr for short drag race. You know what i mean?
I think any led could do over 1km with a big enough reflector
All of the Osram white flat’s achieve 1km+ , the CULPM1 is the brightest white of them all. Using it in the Convoy L21A at 7A I get 1350 meters but my meter gives a higher number than others so I sell it at 1250m.
If I point it just above a hill on our farm I can see the outline of it and that’s 1300m so it’s at least that much
I find it curious to see many of you driving these emitters quite hard. Of course this also is because how these drivers are set at, namely the newest ∅22mm 8A switching driver (very smart choice, efficient cool running driver).
Curious because we don't really have any formal CULPM1.TG tests yet, hope they are ready soon. The CSLPM1.TG peaked at 8A, and so I wouldn't expect the CULPM1.TG to peak much above 9A. But we'll see.
djozz tested XP-G3 Photo Red. If SST-20-DR performs similarly to XP-G3 Photo Red (it probably does), it does not seem useful to push the LED beyond 3A.
Let's say I would like to get a Convoy L2 smooth replacement reflector. The part is not for sale, which is weird because all other reflectors are (L6, M1, M2, M3, M21C, M26C, and so on). So, how do I order something like this? Custom order? How does it work?
It is not monochrome, it has a wide spectrum, because its light is phosphor converted from a deep blue base emitter. Almost all deep blue is gone, and what you get is slight green and a fair amount of red/deep red as well, besides the dominant wavelengths.
Thanks guys for quick jump in. I’m not good at reading specs, so your rescue was right in time.
But I should have studied the picture better.
Anyway, the diode is in my shopping cart already.
I’m thinking of an anti - fog flashlight but I’d like to ask what do you think.
Which one can get through the fog better, monochrome 590nm or “composed” with dominant 590nm? I also have XP-E2 with monochrome 590nm….
