I guess that there'd be not enough interest in Sinkpads for Rebel leds, BLF being so Cree-oriented (for good reason mostly btw, but for diversity of colour leds the Rebel rules).But in case I'm not the only one: I would take 10 Rebel Sinkpads, so the question is if there's interest for the other 35 within this week?
I assume this is the board your speaking of correct?
I will add the option to the list.
Correct, thanks for the suggestion in the OP, who knows there are more Rebel fans :-)
I’ll take some of those too! Let’s say 3-4 for now. Is there a 16mm rebel option? I would be interested in more of they were 16 but it doesn’t look like it’ll be possible to shave those to 16 cause of the pad location.
Also is the thermal pad perfectly centered (so the die will be perfectly centered) or is the whole emitter centered meaning the die will be slightly offset?
The emitters were centered on the 20mm ones I got pre-populated from Luxeonstar, these:
(they aren’t selling Sinkpad2 boards unpopulated on their site yet, if ever)
As far as I know there are no 16mm round plates offered anywhere (dagnabbit)
(For their 10mm square boards the emitters are slightly off center, just barely so.)
Put me down for qty 4. No idea when or how yet, but like the idea of converting a 20mm XML light. I'll be interested in sources for best deals on the LED's and drivers.
I’ll commit to take 4 Rebel boards, to nudge it along
List has been updated.
The “Sinkpad2” shown here: http://www.luxeonstar.com/assets/images/categories/sinkpad-stars.gif
(from http://www.luxeonstar.com/luxeon-rebel-star-leds )
is a different board — could those be found as bare boards?
The order has been placed. I went ahead and ordered both the RGBW and the Rebels.
That is great news! I hope that there will be enough interest for the remainder of the Rebel boards!
Thats good to hear, I used my last one this morning finishing my most recent MELD light so definitely need more ASAP!
If anyone is planning on using these with a gen 1 XML color IGNORE ALL POLARITY MARKINGS, they are not even close to correct!
The boards are here.
At the time of this post I have
30 pc of the RGBW available
45 pc of the Luxeon Rebel available
In addition I also have 45 pc of the aluminum XML sinkpads if anyone is interested in experimenting with those.
Price for the RGBW and the Luxeon is $1.50 each and the Aluminum XML are $1 each.
Shipping is $4 USA $7 World wide.
Since no one prepaid all boards are sold on FCFS basis.
PP is vesture_of_blood@hotamil.com
Thanks everyone.
jay!
Do the Rebel boards also cost 1.50 each?
Ya, I was editing the post when you asked :)
:-) PP sent, thanks!
That 30 remaining is after my first 15? If thats all that’s left I’ll take an additional 10.
Yep, that was 15 for you and 5 for me brought us to 25. Djozz took one with his order too.
So 24 RGBW
and 35 Rebel
Matt, I sent payment for only 5 additional, I decided by the time I use my 20 of them I need to shut up and buy a batch direct from sinkpad myself so I wanted to leave them in stock for people who only need one at a time.
Just PP'ed for 4 RGBW boards. Thanx!
