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.
7.5mm from bottom of MCPCB to top of optic
Thanks, I wanted to start my work on a vinh-esque p60 drop in before the parts arrive
Do you mean for the RC-G2?
Also is that host in your pic an A6? I have an A6 coming but it is taking FOREVER from farfarled!
EDIT: If you meant/were referring to the RC-G2, I used about a 1/2” length of 1/2” copper coupler (ala ImA4Whlr) to “extend” the original RC-G2 pill and push the quad emitter about 1/2” forward, toward the front (Caveat: It’s in the light already, and I am terrible at ‘eye-balling’ distances, so take that 1/2” with a grain of salt. Basically, the coupler is the difference in the height of the quad board+Carclo optic vs. the original RC-G2 reflector.).
CK's pic is an A6 - that's what he's been working on/with.
Hi Tom,
Maybe if the one I ordered would actually get here, I would’ve known that :)!!! Just kidding :)!!
Mine came from the same FarfarLED guy on DHGate in about 14 days to the midwest. I have an outstanding order from them for more, only at 9 days tho so hopefully they made it to US before this week.
Maybe it is possible fit in the Tiny 26650
but I dont know if the driver works with 4 LEDs. …
If your gonna do that no reason not to use the LEDIL cute quad optic. After seeing the MT swap just posted I’m sure it would work with 4 emitters wires 2s2p for 6v total.
