Thanks for the hints and tips I’m a complete noob at the moment i think it’s best if I purchase a board and do some more reading on this forum
I’m waiting for a reply from the websites in your post And Dx /banggood
I’ve had no luck with contacting the seller in china for a new Circuit driver
Sorry guys didn’t mean to nor did I intend to hijack the the thread.
Thanks
Sounds good F137. Don't be shy about starting a thread to fix your light. There may be folks here that have had the same exact problem that might be able to help you out.
In case you don't know, the driver is kind of hard to get out of most SRK's. Most folks have to heat up the head bit and even then it can be hard to press out. I take it you know how to solder. Anyway, if you have questions, start a separate thread like Werner suggested. Or find a thread with a lot of that type of discussion in it. Best of luck.
Hows it going with this driver texaspyro?
TP, any updates?
Heck I’ll buy one just to show support for the open source firmware plans!
I’ve been tied up on some projects that pay real money… hope to get back on this next week. I have been doing some long term testing on the drivers in some lights. Looking good so far.
I’ve had some problems finding a cheap PCB maker that can panalize round boards. Most want to cut out the individual boards… not good for having the boards built professionally. I have got my own reflow oven up and running (DIY Reflow Oven) and a friend of mine is building a pick-and-place machine. May wind up building them myself.
I realize that a project like this must be a rather complicated and time consuming affair. The reflow oven looks great and your creativity never ceases to amaze me. Puh-lease dont give up on this one. Many SRK’s will thank you! Good luck and thanks for getting back to us with an update.
Hey pyro, lets get this party started. For every person that says they are in for one, you have about 20 ghosters that just read the forums and have never registered!
So if you get this off the ground, and charge $20-$25 per driver, you have make alot of $$$$.
And lastly, count me in for 2, and I don’t even own a Skyray King, but will if you make this driver available!
I was disappointed in my King and have held off on selling/trading it because of this driver. I am in for 1 most definitely.
thanks for the update. Looking forward to checking out the code when you’re ready to release it, as it has some really neat features I have absolutely no idea how to implement myself 
I’ll be in St John this week end. I think they speak Canadian there but guessing. I was going to offer to take that worthless King off your hands, assuming you don’t have a total dud
Seriously, for $40 with warts and all, I really like this soup can of light. I’m looking forward for a kit or finished driver board as well.
St.John (New Brunswick), they speak completely intelligible English
St.John’s (Newfoundland), umm, yeah. hmm. It varies. At best you will be fine, worst it sounds like a cross between a drunken irishman and a hillbilly. (Said with love however, you won’t find nicer people than the Newfies)
I have faith in Pyro to come through on these drivers, so for now the king with continue collecting dust on the shelf.
Thanks for the offer though.
Pyro,
PM Me the specifications. Size of circle, Panel Array you'd like (x by y), Rail Size, Min Trace/Space, Min Hole Size, Finish Plating (HASL or ENIG). I'll run the quote through work tomorrow. We get pretty darn good pricing on 2 layer boards because we order so many sq. inches per month. As long as you're ordering a fair number of panels, it will probably come back pretty darn cheap. Solder Mask can be any color you want (within reason) for no extra cost. 2oz copper adds a few cents (literally) per board.

I just give up on SRK idea completely. When this thing started 5 months ago SRK was “da man” now, there are clones of clones that were cloned, then kungs, kongs and what not, was interesting then funny and now it’s just boring…
im hoping for a driver from my supfire and my king.
Brian
Any Updates?
I haven’t heard back from PilotPTK yet… he seems to be hiding lately…
Any news yet?
Still haven’t heard back from Pilot about the PCBs… he seems to have fallen off the face of the earth… time to find Plan B…
I saw this thread hop back to the top, and my hopes soared. Then crashed.
