Suitable hosts for 24mm quad optics.

I don’t think it’s “in the works” so much as “waiting for a crash dummy volunteer to test it”. :wink:

anybody have a link to comfychair’s honing down of an optic?

Suitable host for a 35mm triple optic? :-)

Do you mean post #23 in your thread here: Recommend a bench top drill press ?

Or here: https://budgetlightforum.com/t/-/25551#comment-557387

I’m losing my mind, Wight! Thanks, Comfychair, I am subscribed to that one you posted as well. They say the mind is the second thing to go. Now if I could just remember what was first to go…

or 32mm :slight_smile: ?

That was indeed what I was hinting at :-) . The optic that fits that board is the Ledil Cute optic, which is 35mm diameter. It could be shaved to 32mm of course, but you will loose some beam quality and a bit of output.

I've not found any of that to be the case when cutting down the Carclo triples from 20mm to 17mm.

a nice host with this triple and a colored middle with custom firmware will be perfect.

Do you have the driver measurements?

I have not taken the light apart yet. Not planning to tear it down before Im doing a mod.

It might be similar to SC01. If so its 15,5mm and with an electronic switch mounted to it. Maybe someone else can confirm.

Hi,

sinner has a thread about a new host that he’s making and might offer, and I’ve posted over there about possibility of using his host with the quad setup:

I think that a Small Sun ZY-T29 might work. This pic is just with the Carclo quad optic in the light (not modded yet) to see the fit:

The optic is just about the same diameter as the opening, so probably would need to have a spacer to extend the pill forward.

Also, the ZY-T29 is a side switcher with an electronic switch, so I’m not sure about a driver replace to drive 4 emitters.

Anything with an attiny13 MCU can be flashed with momentary firmware. The BLF-17/20/22s will do 8.5-9A from a single 20R/25R/VTC5 into 3 parallel XPG2s, with 4 LEDs I'd guess that would go up to 10-11A.

17DD in a UF-T50 (momentary side switch):

Switch wires go to pin #2 & ground.

For the record, a Romisen RC-G2 works perfectly, size-wise:

By now many of you have probably seen my quad RGBW A6’s

Notice all the extra wiring? Think wiring one of these for series is a lot? Try wiring them individually addressable.

Has anyone found any other suitable clicky switch hosts for these? What I don’t want is empty space around the optic.

Also I’m using a 35mm cute in both my new EA41 builds (one the production version of pukelight, the other a white only (using a boosted factory driver) triple I’ll be calling the EA41_ck.

Note all of these lights (plus the quad SC02_MELD’s I’m doing) all require custom spacers, the optics are shorter (some by quite a bit) than the factory reflectors*

*i was able to shorten the A6’s instead of building a spacer/new pill.

Ohaya how’s the fit height wise?

Can anyone tell me the height of the quadoptic + the mpcb is?

Rebel quads are 23mm: http://www.luxeonstar.com/sinkpad-23mm-quad-leds
and Rebel um heptas, 7 emitters, are 40mm ….

That is diameter, I want to know height.
