One of the things i really like about this driver is the thermal regulation. I see that dozz tested it and it worked well, but I don’t see the external temperature thermister included as an accessory. Is this something that will be supported with this release ?
See post 78, ntc resistors are included by default
Got it, thanks. My limited electronics brain didn’t realize a NTC resistor was the same thing as a thermister 
I know it seems straightforward but it would be nice to see a pic of a properly installed thermistor. I’m assuming that’s underside of pill or led shelf but my assumptions have always been my greatest enemy.
It will work with a forward switch, with the only difference that instead of a half-press to switch modes as you normally would with a reverse switch, you need to click twice to cycle off-on.
Thanks for the info!
Just curious, are there many left?
I have enough parts this time.
I still have 4 of the LD1s, why am I tempted to buy 4 LD2s?
So you can gloat when everyone else’s are gone.
The LD-2 is a nice match to the new flat-top emitters and the Reylight.
A hot flashlight. Celsius, if not sex appeal.
I should have taken a little more care to center the little button but it wanted to stick where it is……….
Thanks, led4power!
I have an application in a headlamp, I am wondering can the modes be spaced closer and not so fire breating on the high end.
I want to put a 6v MT-G2 in the spark SX5 so max brightness will not be the most important thing. (the magnetic lights did not work out so this is a fall back project).
Does the LD-1 or 2 (or other) work with electronic switches?
Also how do we get ramping put in, so we can choose how bright we want it?
and do you have Boost drivers for single cell 6V applications?
Sorry I maybe asking dumb questions.
LD-2 works with e-switches. But modes are fixed AFAIK - it’s not like the ATtiny13a drivers where you can swap/modify programs.
Ramping is one of the ui’s available for e-switch use. A resistor change can reduce the max current. See the into thread for the formula to choose the correct resistor value for a given max current.
I'm not sure if my post/answer about ramping is deleted,so I'll repeat (and definitely must refresh OP):
Ramping UI is removed in LD-2,instead of that,UI_2 in now "discrete ramping",so by holding switch you ramp up/down through existing discrete modes (moon,low,med,high),double press toggles mode between min/max,normal press is on/off (last mode from off),long press from off is for lowest mode from off.
what happened to the info thread? it doesn’t load at the moment:
Yep. noticed that too. The matrix is being wonky this morning!
That’s because the Matrix runs on Windows!
Ledpower is working with SB to fix it
