Can’t hurt to ask but I think that’s all they have
If we wanted those we have to pay $1500+ and make a design for them and we will get around 300-500 boards at that price that will be expensive
Only how I know is because I asked for 16mm boards and they said it will have to be custome made

@nitro&relic: I think you guys are a little confused? relic asked about XPG and XPG2 and nitro posted in the OP that we can get XML and XPG.

I’m just getting what they have made and in stock
If u need something they don’t have the price starts out at $1500
That might lead out to be 3-5 bucks a board
Bort I can do it if u order the led or I can order it an reflow it to the board ??

Hey guys I just sent a msg to the company and I asked if they had boards for the xpg2 and this is what he said
Board footprint remains same for XPG and XPG2. LED footprint is exactly same. Same PCB you can use for XTE also.

We pretty much knew that.. XPE and XPC would also work.
So available are 20mm boards for XM or XP footprint.

Does anyone know if different reflow solders have better or worse heat transfer characteristics?
no idea, but I’ve had several people recommend using solder paste as it makes it easier to get reproducible results (same thickness, no excess, etc). No idea personally, but might be worth checking out.
I think it’s also what the peeps at Cutter used in this video:

I’m hesitant to say this but you guys are strongly opposed to introducing this GB to the other forum just for the sake of getting more people, right?

I think it would be they would strongly oppose to joining a blf group buy. If you linked this thread over there… I bet it would be gone within 5 mins.
Might be worth a try though

I’m up for 10 of each (XML and XPG) if we get over 300, 20 of each if this goes over 1000.
My original intention (I was going to do a group buy) was to add CPF to the list of people in the group buy if we needed the number made up: I see no problem with it… they will just do the same over there regardless (or someone will pop up selling them for more). Nitro you have PM.
