I'm sure there's someone here who knows. I can't imagine the bare 14500s not fitting, but I'm not sure about the protected versions. I will post measurements of them once they arrive.
Good news! The package with the AMC7135 showed up today! Mailman had put it in the wrong box, wasn't stolen after all. Will be up on the site momentarily.
You're right, I totally do! I apologize fellow human beings! Need to keep a more positive outlook. On the bright side, everything is up on the site. Also added a few switches and some shrink-wrap for your 18650 cells.
Yes, I will be offering a few things like this in the near future. The big issue is packaging; when you dedome the emitter it becomes much more fragile due to the exposed phosphor, bond wires, etc. I will tape a hard "dome" over the top of the star. I also will test every emitter after a dedome to ensure functionality.
Why not just do what IOS do? Put the emitters in film-canisters, or perhaps short sections of heavy cardboard tube? With the latter you can have two sizes, one for 20mm stars and one for 16mm stars.
Petrol bath to remove the dome, clean with isopropyl alcohol, spray a bit of LEDseal into a cup, pick up some liquid LEDseal with the end of a chopstick, apply drop onto top of naked LED.
