So glad to hear you got out, I hope you can be with your son again soon!
Glad to have you back, wish your family good luck.
It appears that Sunlike has his family back with him and all are in Ukraine.
Amen. Glad to hear this.
Let’s hope that Ukraine stays a safe place to be 
Yes, lampman may be out of the frying pan but is still may be too close to the fire.
Hello, peoples of the flat earth! =)
I am in Norway with my son sience 01.02.2022, before war started (I think it is just start of the WW3 with nuclear weapon). Actually I expected that war will start 02.02.2022, but it was started 22-24.02.2022
About this project (SUNLIKE LT1 board)
I had pcbs, it is on the way from Belarus to Norway.
I have a lot of leds, and spectrometer. But I have no soldering table and paste, it is expensive for me here NOK2,349.00~250€
Almost all another tools and parts was thefted or losted. And BLF LT1 flashlight too
Here in Norway I can restart my lamps business, but I do not want, it is not rational here. Here is 20€ per hour (before taxes) for easy job. Specialists takes 50-60€. Yes, I can use slaves work in China or even here, I am in the prisoners cump, but they talking that it is asylmottak, but I know the truth =) I can use unlegan workers with 5€ per hour with cash payment. If go by legal way, it is so much burocracy in this country… It is too slowly everything.
So sorry to peoples who ordered something from me, it is about 5000-6000$ not finalised orders. But I lost about 15000$ and 6 month without job with this unlegal placing to North Belarusian prison… Also I lost my home and my father (he still there). My son was 100 days in psyatry hospital alone, it was like a prison, may be worse.
Some time I will restart this business, but may be no.
I understand completely. The war is not, was not, your fault. Unfortunately, losses happen. I can live with it. I hope you manage to carry on with whatever you do. Stay well, stay safe.
As said before, no worries about my order, your worries are worse. For us fashoholics it is a pity that your business is gone because you did some unique things, but I’m glad that you are somewhere where you can at least think about a future.
Yeah, yeah, LEDs and orders can wait indefinitely. You are so much more important.
However, I do have some ways we can get some high CRI LEDs, Ra9580 in fact.
Is that good enough?
I can not understand. Do you want CRI 97-98 leds from me or in general?
From me it is possible, but it is so expensive shipping from here.
In general no. New rules for EU (ErP) standards. It must be much more flux for led bulbs, so REMEZ and etc cheap bulbs now with not enought flux
Oh no no, I’m talking about getting some high CRI 2835 LEDs for the LT1 project and whatnot.
I have some contacts at LED manufacturers who can make some good decently efficient 2835 R9580 LEDs, and I’m wondering if there would be such demand if I were to do it on my end.
I do not know. But I know that spectrum must be with violet, it is impossible to any factory to do it with normal efficiensy. 3030 by Seoulsemicon is the best ones now.
Nice to see this still moving along, especially considering all your recent issues. Are the boards in production now, or still testing?
Hi Lampman, I’m glad to see you posting again. I hope you are doing well.
I look forward to hearing updates.
I have about 100-150pcs pcbs
And almost received Sn42Bi58 soldering paste.
Tomorrow I will go to Ikea to buy normal lamps, after that all I will do this boards. I have no flashlight, it was thefted , but it must works fine. Shipping from Norway is some expensive, but… everything is expensive here =)
Yes, we doing well for this place (mottak center, but I call this place prison for some reasons), but it is much better than be in Belarusian prison or in the war in Ukraine. I am in Norway from 1st of February, still without answer from UDI about my case. Some peoples waited for years here =(
Best of good fortune to you. Is your son with you?
