【convoy】H4 and B35AM options are updated

@id30209

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?

[Haukkeli]

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.

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…

Sorry… Other than you like it in 3 mode. How much difference between 30% and 50%?

Enough to leave it and take Zebralight…

EDIT: Nah, it’s not that serious but it’s noticable

@MoreLumens

Does anyone have beamshots from GT-FC40 3000k and 4000k?

I’m ordering M21B and driver for my 4000k one, but it would be only few €’s more to get ready to use model with led installed so maybe getting that 3000k one.

3000K is really nice. I have put 4000K and 3000K ones in S21A/B’s. You can find my beamshots of both emitters in what did you mod today thread.

Hi I’m trying to order a TIR reflector for my s2+ 219b (in the mail) and I’m a bit confused. I’m looking to achieve a nice even floody beam profile.

What size footprint should it be? (3535, 5050?)
Which angle should I choose? (85, 60, 45……?)
What kind of surface finish? (matte, bead, strip, clear?)

Thanks in advance for your help.

85degree 3535

Wouldn’t be great for H1 and 219b?

No suitable lens for H1 currently

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.

Sorry, I found that the old 7135*8 driver is still installed in some flashlights. Please PM me and tell me your address, and I will send you the new driver

The main reason I have not used ramping mode extensively is that it is more suitable for forward switch. But currently most of my flashlights use reverse switches, I don’t know if many users will mind it.

And I never used ramping driver...

I am using all kind of FW's: Bistro, H17Fx, Dragon, Crescendo, Guppy's and they all fit the reverse switch. The thing is in the operator, not the driver

Seems like there is 3x21A with SBT90.2 now.

Hi,

I don’t know how to solder, and don’t have the tools too. The old driver is OK on the first S2+ sw45k which was received.

Will let you know once the 2nd one arrives if it still has old driver. I ordered the lighted switch with 2nd light and was expecting it to work.

With standard switch (without lighting) the old driver works well. Change the switch it’s very easy, only need a tweezers.
