These two screws are isolated from circuit wire which also called MCPCB board so that should not cause a shot circuit even when the screws got contact with the body.
I received an S41 Nichia today. Ordered shortly after the pre sale started with expedited shipping.
Man, this is one sweet bright little, and I mean little, light!
The optics are quite a bit tighter than a Carclo narrow quad with 219C.
Currently running it with an AW 800 mah 12A IMR 18350. I’ll try and get a tail clamp meter reading in the morning. Not as bright, of course, as my DBCustom modded Cu X5 with the quad 219C, with narrow Carclo, but that is max modded. This is stock! And, it is holding its own!
I just got a few of Richards newest FET + 1, Bistro drivers and the new quads with XP-G3’s, and both flavors of 219C’s, now how long until I have to try putting one of those in?
I’m curious if I will be able to use the stock optic with one of those MCPCB’s…
I think most people will be stoked to get these! I have an XP-G2 model coming as well. Had to try them both…
what should i say? I can locate the short on the edge of the MCPCB where the screw sits with a DMM. It is not the body and the screw causing the short. The screw touches the positive trace of the MCPCB. It is not a big deal for me personally, because i often modify lights. I placed a piece of an insulator over the edge, that worked for me. A disc only didn´t.
And please remember, the light worked without shorting when i got it. But i think this could be improved in future designs for safety purposes.
