Who more knowledgeable than you, a Man that understands the parameters ahead of time, and (with permission) the driver all sorted out beforehand?
There is Always a way to make more time (is a divorce all that bad?) - Just less of this and less of that in your life, but just think about all of the praise you will receive from the BLF community! - WE are Many, and will support you all the way! - That should be what’s really important to you. - Helping Others.
Hey! - We Love You Man!
I’m Totally Convinced that… You Are Da Man for This!
Very true about the "sweet spot"...buy many and give them away knowing that they cannot be had elsewhere :)
I do not know anything about where this would go BUT...
Triples....3 expensive emitters on a board with optics alone is going to run about $40....without the host.
Host prototyping is where the money really goes. $600-1000 without even thinking. Do it a few times and we could spend thousands on prototypes. That gets added
The list goes on
Not trying to discourage anybody and open dialog is good but bigger-headed lights get expensive quickly. If you know what driver...then look for a ready host. Fastest, cheapest, easiest way.
The better pill isn’t needed for only 4-6A that a XP-G2 S4, XP-L HI or a XM-L2 U4 would pull. Just because a better pill has been sold doesn’t mean it is absolutely necessary.
The better pill give less heat sag & is needed for emitters with higher amp pull, like that old high amp round one with high CRI, that i can’t remember the name of right now sorry.
I hope a BLF Courui D01-SE with the big kaidomain reflector could be made, with crazy performance like that i am pretty sure a lot of people would be ready to pay much more than the old sweet spot of $20-$30.
If we could get that with a FET driver or even cheaper just running DD, it would beat almost anything out there in throw.
Yeah - But, that’s not a Thrower, that’s a BLASTER! - It Throws simply by using brute force.
Can you imagine how bright the foreground would be in your face with that Monster?
Try using that thing in most locals, and the Cops will be called:-)
Hey! - Justin is The Man, that’s just not my idea of a Thrower.
Please understand that I do understand that a Triple can Throw, it’s just if it does, you have to have the very high foreground along with it:( … I already have more of that than I need with my lowly Acebeam K40M If we can’t get a GB going, I think that I’m going to be talking to Vinh about one of his Acebeam K40L with Genuine XP-L HI. - That’s the same concept as the proposed BLF-SE Courui D01, but at MUCH greater cost.
Maybe Justin will make us some custom Courui Pills?
