Most of this is available elsewhere on the forum: The stock driver is 22mm in diameter, the cavity above that is >20mm in diameter - so you can piggyback anything smaller than that. The stock LED is mounted on a 20mm star, so you can use either a 20mm star or a 16mm star. I’m not sure whether the thickness of the Noctigon will have an effect.
I just checked your order#, since you selected Flat Rate Shipping which is unregistered mail, no tracking number is available with this order therefore the shipping progress cannot be traced online.
However I’m delighted to inform you that your order is on its way. The standard delivery time will be around 15-45 business days after dispatch if there are no delays. Please don’t worry,the package can reach you in due time. Thanks.
This worked, search for ultrafire ceee xm-l, and brought up 1 light, then when I clicked on the light I got the error message again. I am signed in to my account on their web page. I give up.
I know it has a 20mm star, the reflector centering ring is quite thick so I don’t think a noctigon/sinkpad thickness will be an issue if you either use a thinner centering ring or thin it down a bit…
I seem to have lots of thicker ones. I think that the aluminum stars I have from Illumination Supply and SinkPAD are all thicker than my copper Noctigons, but on the other hand the inexpensive Chinese stars are probably thinner than those. I have no idea what’s in the F13 head, I haven’t removed the MCPCB yet. My bad
As per our offline discussions which you affirmed, I will wait only for a max of 40 days after my payment was placed. If I don’t have my order by that date, I will file for PP dispute already.
I bought quite a few of these in two shipments. The second shipment has arrived. In it there were two different drivers. Some had no mode memory, always starting on high after being off for about five or six seconds with tailcap measurements of 2, 1.45 and .75 amps. The other had next mode memory with tailcap measurements of 2, .75 and .3 amps. The pencil trick worked to get this light to always start on high after about 5 seconds.
