I’m fairly certain I can lego the head of this light with my old ITP A3 and make it a twisty. I know the tool’s head can, so it should work as a twisty with this light too right?
Would be cool to just choose a clicky/twisty like that whenever I want.
Also, when would we be able to know what modes/runtimes would look like?
Lumintop rep came to our office yesterday. Nichia 219BT-V1 is available from Hank,which will increase the cost of 1$. 26.88$-30.88$ @ 200pcs-500pcs. (BLF+CPF)
Is a good price for 200 or for 500 pcs.
I like 2 modes,3 modes, 4 modes,…I like L/M/H or M/H/L……I do not care, I like it, it is a good and exclusively flashlight….
I want to buy one unit…. this year!!!
I think the spacing between moonlight and low would be better than how it is now. It reminds me of the thrunite type levels that annoy people a bit. That said, the L-M-H and nice low are appreciated!
Two concerns: 1) will the PWM frequency a bit higher than the stock Tool? 2) will a 0.5% PWM-generated mode be stable with this led? : I know that going lower than 2% has caused trouble before, but that was also PWM-frequency dependent if I remember well (I'm not an expert).
The 2-mode Tool that Selfbuilt tested more than a year ago was current controlled, the newer model 3-mode Tool that I tested half a year ago was PWM controlled, with a fairly low frequency. So Lumintop changed that at some point.
It would be great of course if this copper GB Tool would use current control for the three modes, but I guess that would imply a new driver design by Lumintop.
(btw, if this gb works out with this 0.5%-20%-100% driver (PWM or current controlled), I would be interested in a couple of separate drivers for modding, if that could be arranged :-) )
