I havent been able to find those two data sheets anywhere online... only sft20, sft10, and sft colors.. The -40 and -70 seem nonexistent. I've looked a couple of time since ordering this light.
wow.. if you look at bottom of page #1 on both data sheets, in "applications" the first thing Luminus lists is FLASHLIGHTS. I've never noticed that on other data sheets before!
EDIT: never mind i see it says the same thing on the sst40 datasheet too...
Thanks for the datasheets, Simon! I was about to ask if you could share them again since the previous hosting links are dead. Been very curious about the SFT40.
I really enjoy the balance between flood and throw in SST40. I guess SFT40 will be a bit floodier than CULPM1, but I wish someone post a beamshot comparison.
Looks like the SFT40 has 4 bond wires. Not sure I’ve seen that before; a bond wire at each corner of the die. If that is the case that should mitigate the burning bond wires failure mechanism of the SST40.
