Wow relic, that is sooo much awesomeness, you could probably spare some awesomeness and still be sitting pretty.
It must feel very satisfying having it work/finished.
Sooo much awesomeness! Beamshots are a mustā¦like asap!
Awesome, Relic!! I can't wait to see the pics of the completed light. Are you going to leave it looking antique or are you going to polish this to a gleaming shine for the contest? I'm hoping for gleaming shine. :)
looking forward to seeing this when its completed ! 
2530 lumens after 30 secondsā¦ and with 5C tint. NICE!
All polished and done.
First post updated. Lots of pics of the light and some white wall beamshots. I have more to add over the next day or so.
Thanks to Justin, all participants, our spectators, and our sponsors! 
Words fail me.Simply unbelievable. Well done.
Dayumā¦. looks like a production sample!!
Far out Relic! I love it.
Any chance of pix of your wiring sequence. Iām still trying to get my head around series vs parallel.
Thanks everyone. Ouchy, Iāll do a schematic. Technically, these emitters are not in parallel. Each driver drives one LED.
That, I really would like to learn.
You totally rocked that Relic! Polished up itās brilliant, and I DO love polished copper/brass/stainless/Tiā¦Ok, Iām a bling freak and that is gorgeous!
The output is crazy too, excellent job inside as well. Wish I understood the electronicsā¦would never have thought you could run 3 boards from another board, Master/Slave with drivers boggles my mind (admittedly easy enough to do)
Very impressive! I bet itās a solid chunk in the hand as well, I think you should send it on BLF tour, let everybody play with it for a week before sending it on to the next person on the list.
That is so beautiful. The polished copper A+. The brass bezel ring really sets this light off too. Nice job.
You can get brass lacquer to keep it shiny. Thatās why those brass and copper knick knacks in the stores are always so shiny.
Thanks guys. Ouchyfoot, Iāve considered a lacquer but it dissipates heat so horribly as it is, add a layer of āinsulationā and I think it would just burn it off 
The host itself gets heat out of the emitters better than any light I have. Copper all the way. The problem is, it cannot radiate it away due to the shiny finish. Iām thinking it might be a little better once it returns to a natural finish, but I doubt there is enough surface area to dissipate 30W of heat. I might have to customize the driver to make High into a Turbo mode, and add in a longer-term sustainable high.
Darren, Very impressive! You're the man!
Take a wire wheel to it, and give it a brushed finish. That could look rather nice, especially when a patina sets in.
Looks fantastic! Those wall shots certainly "buttery smooth" like you said!

I did the wire wheel first on the body, and liked it, but for the glamour shots I decided to go polished. It gets nice and brassy coloured in about a week.
Edit: silly phone keyboard.
It gets mice brassy colored in only a week! 
+1 looks amazing!!!
