Busy busy busy ! For at least one more month = Busy ! then I can sleep in , go for lazy afternoon walks , and do more fun stuff like play with flashlights …
In my test of a new hand held spot light I purchased, I put it up against my Fandyfire HD-2010 and the Small Sun ZY-T16. I’m sure the T16 uses the exact same reflector and a similar driver as the Small Sun ZY-T08. If you want to see the beam shots, just scroll down to the photos I posted a few days ago.
I know nothing about modding but am going to try this one. Where exactly do you solder the resistor on the driver? Is it the bottom of the resistor on the left to the top of the resistor on the right or can you solder anywhere on the left resistor and anywhere on the right resistor. thanks
Those resistors are in parallel, so you can solder anywhere so long as you get one leg soldered to one side and the other leg soldered on the other side. In the pic above one side would be the side of any of the 3 resistors toward you and the 2nd being any of the 3 away from you. I think viffer attached his the way he did simply because it was easier with the size/length of resistor he used.
Will it have any side effect from the increase current? Reduce in driver life-span? Irregular flickering or dimming of LED?
I am waiting for my unit to arrive too.
