Does Vinh operate at a level beyond most of us mere mortals?

40K lumens.

’Nuff said.

Nice. How many and what type LEDs?

32 XP-L HIs and 4 XHP70s

32 XP-L HIs and 4 XHP70s

hahahaha that is only to be used in a lighthouse :wink:

Wish he wouldn’t have done that near traffic.

I thought that too, but eh, hope it’s not that close or he has $$$ insurance.

Yeh man, put some light on it….Nice way to drain the Swamp… :wink:

Very impressive. I’ll bet it’s beyond expensive

And the 4 XHP70s are in mule mode - no reflector, no optic, 100% radial projection. This is a ri-donkulous flashlight.

But I want one for some reason!

It is definitely insane but I wouldnt call that impossibly difficult for any of the experienced modders here at BLF to do. Skill is not the limitation in builds like this, money and time are. Once you are certain that anything you build can and will be sold, its safe to come up with the crazy ideas.

Vinh loves to use FET drivers so I’m guessing a dual driver setup one for each switch, maybe 2x 2P XHP70 and 16x 2S8P XP-G3/XP-L HI each driver to achieve a balanced Vf.

Hey Convoy Simon……Build It !!

Translation……Dream Big… :laughing:

he is known for modding regular lights into wow lights, nothing that is “beyond us mortals” he just pushes leds over their limits,

Ya think maybe Richard might of had something to do with it. I bet he did! :smiley:

For 40000 lumens? 32 XP-L HIs and 4 XHP70s? Why all those Cree leds? I mean 40000 lumens can be generated by 12 Latticebright leds. Easily. Pfff……amateur….

The light needs a backpack for more than one hour and water cooling for the light head.

Or one or two COBs.
I don’t see the appeal of that flashlight… it’s just another “stick as many LEDs as possible for 2 mins runtime” floodlight.
The only thing I find impressive about it is the driver they designed to power all that.

How long on max brightness? 10s ?

Probably 60s, cause that’s how long it was on in the video :stuck_out_tongue:
