Heatsink issues.... battery is also ugly, but the problem is heatsinking!! my 15 Watt SST-50 torches are scary to use, and those are specially designed with the emitter and star sitting on the heatsink piece, not drop-ins.
Impractical as it may be, I would rather have 3x single 18650 torches.
Do let me know about that one - I've been sorta, kinda looking at those as the replacement assistant will be a lot more energetic than it's predecessor so I might well want something like that till I get the pup trained.
(Ain't happening soon as I'm waiting for Foxwood to breed some more.
They'd sold all the pups from the last litter (At $1600 a time). they sent me a video of the current litter - I wanted all 11 of them. Problem is my house isn't big enough. Come to that, my local park isn't big enough.)
Not all that soon - Foxwood don't breed all that often. I'm on the list for their next litter. Giants tend to have large litters - 11 pups is normal. I've seen the video of the current litter and I want all 11 of them. At about 40% of what I get paid a year....
Not only is my house not big enough, my local park isn't big enough!
And I want another Foxwood - Fizz was Foxwood Carpe Diem.
Going for a dog rather than a bitch this time - Fizz was a "rescue" dog from a breeder that had decided to downsize from giant schnauzers to papillons and border terriers.
ROFL! Foy, you can only shoot your mouth off one light at a time! You had better hope that nothing ever meets or beats your 980L the way you evangelize it.
I understand that we use for this purpose the best equipment.
I also ordered thisone for my daily walk with my best friend Gypsy (Border Collie)
Congrats, glad to know that you are going for a new assistent
It cannot replace the one you had for many years, but it helps you to get over it and after a matter of time you gonna love your new friend.
It took me 2 years to get over the lost of Lady (King Charles Cavalier), but now Gypsy is almost more than 1 year with us, I am realy happy to have back a best friend.
Dear heaven above, is that what I sound like? Perhaps I need to move the appointment with my therapist up a little sooner. My condition is becoming much more acute.
Heheheh...it's all good. It's good for the soul to find something you enjoy and are excited to share with others. We all need a little more of that in our lives. :) If we all find something that sparks our enthusiasm and share it with the others here we will be able to broaden our horizons and try new things we would have missed out on otherwise. ;)
Thommy, how's the current draw with 2 and 4 x 18650? 4S is really a lot, really need to make sure to balance them cells properly. 2 is manageable and would be very safe with good cells like Solarforce, XTAR, Sanyo/Panasonic/Samsung or IMR. With flat top cells, it is best not to use magnets but drop a blob of solder and file the top part down a bit. Need to wrap the drop-in good with aluminum/copper foil real tight.
I ordered the Sky Ray version from Manafont, 2 x 18650 only. How much is the shipping from Shenzhen Wholesale?
