Im “kinda” being sarcastic too. Yes 2A per die. George at Taskled is a great guy! Im waiting for my extention tube from Fasttech to get here so I can run 5 cells. Then I will turn the Pot up to 2500ma. J)
Here is where I trimmed the white plastic spacers around the emitters. It seamed to really make a noticeable difference. The top right white spacer has not been trimmed yet.
That. Is. Awesome. You know the emitters/SinkPADs cost more than the light, right?
Do you have a way to measure the output/throw? I bet that thing gets hot fast at 2A/emitter.
I have mine at 1.2A/emitter with the stock T6 emitters and it hits 5200 lumens with 50kcd throw. You are probably in the 8000-9000 range with 80kcd+
Yes, Relic! You are the person that motivated me to mod my light at first. I got the idea of trimming the white spacers from you too. I posted a lot on your review thread of this light. Vesture of blood was kind enough to help me along too. Yes, I know the emitters cost more than the light it self. Its definitely not a “budget light”!
It gets a little warm but I don’t leave it on for more than a few minutes.
I been looking around for a light meter, any suggestions?
I have the HS1010A from… oh, I forget where now. Fasttech have the one-piece model (HS1010), but I prefer the two-piece as it is better for use on my integrating box.
For well under $20, this is one of my most used flashlight modding tools. Right up there with soldering iron and multimeter
