[Feeler Thread] Copper direct-connected 20mm triples and quad universal MCPCB boards

hi Dsche, any news of these boards? I have a nice plan for a quad board, I hope there will be some available at some stage.

Thanks.

Hi guys!

Sorry for delay (I’ve already said it? Heh. Sorry anyway)

Quads are ready at last, and now all boards on the its way to me (and some early adopters)

I hope it’s needed about two weeks more for delivery to me

I think example number 3 in the first post is wrong. It looks like you are driving it with 7135s with leds in parallel, but you are using two cells in series?

So how close are we to getting some quads, definitely going to give it a whirl…

Might get the quad board, and the optic

Anyone have suggestions for a good host? (most definitely going to throw a OSHPark FET at it…4x emitters need da powah!

Maybe, but it work





2all, finally got it!

Please PM me if you need some )

First build with copper (silvered) quad

Wow! I've never seen this kind of P60 heatsink, even from your previous builts over at Fonarevka and CPF, Dsche.

Wanna see more of it.

MustSimon, yes, it’s new )

I’ve announce this new system a few days ago on CPF and on Fonarevka too – welcome to discuss!

That is a work of art. Please show us more of this total build. Then sell them to us!

Very interested in trying out some of your work. PM sent from the other side.

(That’s how interested I am, your adapter dragged me in where I haven’t been in weeks)

I would definitely be interested if you made a triple XM-L2 board in 20mm. These look nice but I already have triple XP-G Noctigons. I might entertain getting a few quads boards from you.

JohnnyMac, actually we don’t need XM-* more because of new CREE XP-L

How about 4 of those in your quad? Very interesting indeed…

someone here tied them and said they do not play very nice with the normal XP-(E/G) optics.

The issue is when still domed.

Ah. I missed that.

I assume you were referring to this thread by welight: Cree XPL. In the OP welight mentions that the XP-L just won’t fit under the Carclo and Ledil XP- optics. Dedome it and the problem goes away, but at that point there’s not much special about the XP-L other than the fact that it fits on a triple XP Noctigon.

Macro (600px/inch)

In my last PM to you, for some reason I was thinking these were for XM-L's. With the recent announcement and availability of XP-L's, I'm really glad I was wrong.

What's amazing is that even with inefficient high CRI Q2 bin XP-G2's and Richard's FET driver, this thing should put out 1400 emitter lumens.
