The Sky-Ray King Thrower Mod........ It's Finished! Beam shots are up

Yup, if there’s an easy way, I just would not want to do it. Takes all the fun out of it.

Brilliant solution to the tailcap issue, Justin! You 'da man! :beer:

Very nicely implemented tailcap solution.

this mod is AWESOME looking already

what driver/current are you going to go for?

DrJones 3 amp lumodrv driver with six extra chips. 5100mA.

WOW nice!

I did about all I can do today with the LED, star and other components. Photos in the OP.

Now I wait for the driver to show up the end of next week... Maybe.

Heehee I spot your mistake…The emitter’s +ve and -ve are reversed :bigsmile:

His greatness is flawed! He is fallible!

Yup, little dot on the emitter is the negative. I’ve never made that mistake… 0:)

there’s the emitter rverse polarity and I’m assuming power get to the emitter via bluetooth…… :bigsmile: J) 0:)

It was one of those days. The kind of day when the wife just goes and hides with the cat. That mistake was just one of several "issues" that morning. It doesn't make any diffference really, as long as I don't forget and hook up the wires wrongrightimeanwrong, when I have forgotten in a day or so.

just use an xacto knife to knock the vertical legs off the +, then mark a vertical line through the neg with a magic marker so you don’t forget.

The light is finished. Photos and text added in the OP. Beam shots tonight.

Sweet!

“Oh well, it is still very bright and somewaht unique.”

Somewhat unique? You set the bar to high Old-Lumens. It is very unique. I love it.
What do you personally think about the Dr Jones driver?

@RaceR86

I like the DrJones driver. I just like the idea of ramping up or down in an easy manner. That way I can set the brightness to where I feel it should be, instead of someone's preset. Plus, it comes from another member and I like that idea too.

Do you or anyone know if there is a video out there, complete guide to how the UI works?
It sounds fairly complicated when I read about it here , but that may not be the case.

That’s all I know of.

Tried the lumo35drv version for ramping?

Thanks for making this thread without scary people. :slight_smile: You again have scared me though with all that wiring and them driver thingy bits. Off to the shrink I go again. :_( Do you know where the centering ring for the reflector came from? Almost forgot. Well done on finishing this at times troublesome build. I suppose this light from the get go was designed to be a flooder. I’ll send my pill, star and led over to you to join all the bits together at once as you have done here. With my ability I’m sure to get one off the four areas to dry solder.

Beam shots are up now, in the OP
