Yes, that one.
How weird, I changed the detection resistance to 0.05 Ohm (R010 + R010) and there was no difference. the resistors may not have made good contact.
You are above the driver’s current capability.
Maybe too much above specs of the components on the driver. Most likely not contact, because you should see some difference.
I don’t understand electronics
I will try R010 from stock + R020
As Freeman stated in post #10548, the converter is close to its limit. Haukkeli piggybacked a 20 mOhm but got 5.32 Amps. You will have to go the XHP35 modded driver (post #10555).
I get the pain of not having readily available parts that fit. It is part of the challenge.
i use simon’s 6v driver with sst70, i just need a little more current
You are above the driver’s current capability.
Yes, that’s true. Most likely it’s possible to go little above the specs, but not that much.
With 10mOhm and 20mOhm piggyback and battery at ~4 volts it draw 8,9A from battery. So still within 10A switching limit. With lower voltages it might be a problem. 4V*8,9A=35,6W.
3,5V*X=35,6W —>
X=35,6W/3,5V —>
X=10,2A of current draw at 3,5V and that is about the boost converters maximum.
If anybody knows how it behaves after that, I’m happy to know.
Got a dud notification. I suppose someone deleted their post. It’s better to strikethrough as others may wish to follow the conversation. However, the Simple Post Editor has a bug in strikethrough shorthand as only valid within a single line, not an entire paragraph. A line break somehow confuses the mark-up. Never tried the Advanced Post Editor as too ‘fancy’ for my needs.
However, maybe the poster didn’t want to have his mistake be known – that’s fair. No big deal, just an annoyance.
Haven’t done much with flashlights lately, but decided to mod a Thrunite Ti3 V2 AAA with a 90+ CRI Nichia 219C. I like it a lot better now.
Has anyone tried this driver?淘宝网 - 淘!我喜欢 Maybe this manta ray can go higher. I have this other manta ray driverhttps://a.aliexpress.com/_uJQ8Tm pushing a sft40 over 10A and it is a blast
I think these are the best c8 size hosts to handle heat, there is a lot of material underneath the mcpcb. one sft40 and one sst70 with convoy drivers

Nice builds Pacolux. I always looked the look of that MR c8.2. I just never carry lights that size. Your mod reminds me that I need to get my hands on some more SFT40s, stat. Hoping the mystery YINDING round emitters perform well and show up quickly. I’ve been denoting them in my build plans as YDpi…
I built MR C8.2 with Fet driver and dedomed XHP70.2. Almost 15A from tail at 6V is quite a number.
I did same test rig for Kaidomain B70 boost driver. M4 bin XHP70.2 and Molicel P42 at 4,1V.
First with stock 10mOhm current sense resistor.
Then with 10 and 20 mOhm parallel
22% increase in output. Also stock driver performs better than Convoy’s one.
after a month of trying to get a nice center even beam on my FT03 sft40, i did it! its really good!
the TLDR -
I reamed the original large centering ring of the ft03 to just under 9mm, and snapped in the square 4040 centering ring simon sells ( i had extra) and what he uses in the L21a sft40. Now, its really good!
A good day of mods! See the link, here's the run down:
Left to right:
Gt Micro- Installed cslpm1, brighter and centered
Sofirn sc31T- installed CULPM1- much better
Reylight Pineapple- installed sw30, so much better
FT03- finally perfectly centered the sft40, took a month of tinkering, ended up being easy
Ft03- sfn55.2 - swapped in the smooth reflector, rhe throw is massively better! Will test it

I mod this one month ago with SFT like you. Try one week ago in the night and in this moment for me is the best thrower for Best Money/Meter/Beautiful/NO parasitic drain torch
I am so happy
