【convoy】H4 and B35AM options are updated

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005003104703598.html

My 219B S2+ 4500k just came in today. The LED is pretty nice.

The description for the 219B S2+ seems to be wrong. It’s the regular Biscotti, which requires 10 taps to go into config mode, not 20 taps.

And doesn’t work properly with the lighted switch. With the lighted switch installed, the light just stays in one mode and refuses to switch modes.

Mine works perfect with lighted switch because it has the new driver witch works with lighted switch (the old driver with on/off always change to next mode). Look inside the tube, if you see silver band between the fets it’s the new driver with option 12 selected (only 1 mode). You need to change the option that you like in config mode.

No word on sft40s restock? Not sure if I should wait or go with a different emitter.

I think he recently said september when i asked

Thanks, that’ll work.

No white/silver band on my 219b s2+….

Your S2+ comes with old driver. Not bad because at the moment with the new driver I can’t enter to config mode, with 10 or 20 clicks always change to next mode.

Solved. The new driver needs to tap more fast than the old to enter the config mode.

You bought and soldered the new driver, or got Simon to build an S2+ for your?

It’s a 219b 3500k custom builded from Simon. Silver with rubber button and OP reflector. I use the lighted switch from another S2+ that didn’t work well with old Biscotti driver.

This is the new driver:

So Simon added the new driver for you?

I freakin love this thing!Nichia B35AM 5000K R9080 with 6V/3A driver.But it anoys me not having anything between 20% and 100%. I like simple 3 mode but a jump from 20% to max is too much so i find my self constantly taping tailswitch.Simon if you read this i would apreciate if you could rearrange modes on your drivers. 5%-50%-100% for nightshift workers…

I can see why. What a great beam profile…and that tint looks gorgeous.

Nearly 10mm² of emitter area equals lovely large spot in edc sized optics. I want one with a LumeX1 in my FW1A. 21700 mates well with this emitter though, really nice build!

Thx guys.

The beam is amazing, reminds of a bit cooler 219B sw45 but with massive output.

The reason i’d be happy with 50%-100% mode is that while i do walkaround around engines, landing gear and lower fuselage, 20% is barely enough and i have to sometimes tap for 100% which is anoying. 50% would be perfect for lower area but for horizontal stabsand wing 100% is perfect.

Have you looked Kaidomain or Manta Ray’s XHP50.2 3A drivers? They aren’t that customizable, but I think they both have something like 30-35% mode in mode rotation. Maybe they are what you need?

Seems like Convoy’s 4 mode driver also has 30% mode. None of my succestions are 3 modes, if that’s what you like. Closest is Convoy’s 4 mode one. :smiley:

It’s also available on this driver (12 group) and tried it but like i said, 50% is perfect but then i don’t have 100% when i choose that group :-(

Yeah, it’s bit annoying sometimes. I have run in that same problem, when 20 isn’t quite enough but 100% is overkill. I also use 3 modes on my work lamps.

Simon,

would it be possible to make Ramping driver but 6V/3-4A?
That could be solution for everybody that want specific output. Since it’s already avialable in 3V…
