FS: LD-1 driver (5Amp pwm-less linear)-SOLD

Well, everyone has their own reasons for their own price points for components buying and selling. Mine is I was thinking I would be able to order multiple Eagle Eyes for gifts with significantly higher output than they have, and since I don’t want to double the cost of 5-10 lights or so, and I’m deficient in the experience/skill some of you have, so its a pretty significant cost for me!

It just looks like a nice driver and I was hoping there was an option to lower the cost by buying more, it seems we have a lot of interest already, and then that interest was amplified by the X6 not performing turbo to a level most are satisfied with, seemingly enough to get hundreds of these ordered I’d bet.

Yeah, talk to me about EE X6 love, i ordered 4 from the GB :slight_smile: Its truly a nice torch, i prefer it over Skyray or Xint, or C8, or any of the flashlights that i have - ofc for all arround use, even from M22- more pocketable, same beam pattern, even same emitter tint and colour( maybe they are same)

Will do ofc, how do X6 performs with XPG2? I have never tested that emitter( r5), only at work, but lower bins, usualy arround 3-5k q3-4, and since XTE is widely spready arround here we usualy work with XTEs

After dedoming, hows the colour? cause i absoolutely dont like wha i see on most XML2s, they became either too yellowish, or green, or even brown……currently i have only one bin that i acceptable after dedoming, t6 7000k from FT

I get the impression that 90% odd of those who complained of lack of amps in the X6 would not even wire the springs,let alone change a driver.They probably do not own a soldering iron,and many lights were for gifting :santa: without even opening the box.I’m sure the X6 group buy will generate orders for the Led4power driver,they are made for each other.But it will be in the dozens,not hundreds,because modders only,even if a simple mod.

Ahh, I don’t know, especially if it were say $10 range. +.3A seems to be what the spring wiring does from tested reports, this driver allows for a lot more significant results for the work than that, plus more functions/modes and no PWM! :slight_smile:

I haven’t followed the BLF X6 thread closely. Have driver swaps been documented for problem units?

I don’t know about problem units, but driver swapping has definitely been done by Dale in a BLF X6 he modded for SB. Dale has said that the LD-1 is an easy switch-out for the stock driver and makes an impressive difference.

Unfortunately the ‘problem’ units are the ones that really matter when it comes to the topic of potentially popular driver swaps on the BLF X6. We all know that DBCstm is capable of squeezing high current out of a stone.

Has to chuckle. I like what L4P has done here and hope it inspires him and others to continue this kind of effort. It doesn’t always pay off monetarily so something very like a GB can be helpful in spreading risk.

Djozz, for things that everyone uses like springs it might work to go ahead and set up a prepaid investment thread to purchase custom PB springs in a larger quantity since it would take the buying power of many of us combined to pull it off and commitment to buy from even more. A custom mcpcb would need this approach but one person would still have to be point man to set it up and disburse packets when ready.

Hey Neven, whas up with those lovely drivers or yours? Still Cooking eh? :slight_smile:

One of mine EEX6 is crying out loud for a driver like that

IN STOCK again.

Hopefully these will make the BLF X6 even better than it is now (Especially when the 25R batteries arrive)

Do these come with a spring mounted?

Thanks! PP sent.
