100w LED emitter & huge heatsink - to give away UK only (sorry)

Flashlight Modding and DIY Parts
1

I didn’t know exactly where to put this, so I put it in this category.
I work in a electrical wholesaler and we had a return, which has now been scrapped effectively (cost wise) but it was around £100 nett worth - £200+ retail.
All I know is that it was flickering, so I guess it was a driver problem. The heat-sink on this thing is massive and it is quite heavy.
I am happy to give it away free to someone in the UK who would like to have a go modding this monster!(due to weight the new owner will have to pay postage - around £10 at a guess).
If you’d like it and are happy with paying postage, just say so below by giving a very brief description of your masterplan for it and if needs be I’ll chose a winner. If nobody wants it I’ll take it to the scrap yard.
The image below is the same, but the heat sink on mine is twice as long!

For further info see here - virtually identical, but shorter item
I don’t have any diffuser.

I will take it. I will need to decide on a master plan but I will certainly use it.

Cool, it’s yours then. :slight_smile:
I’m a bit busy until next week, but I’ll pack it up and let you know next week how much the postage will be.
I hope you have fun with it!

It he doesn’t want it I’ll be more than happy to pay postage for it. (hell, that means if he doesn’t want to pay postage :slight_smile: )

Not sure myself what I’d do with it. Maybe light up my shed. 8000 lumens would be ample.
Maybe use it for some photography stuff.

Now the wait for a build begins for the rest of us :wink:
Nice action!

Where did you get such a heatsink? I also have a CXA3070 led to put to use and a meanwell 36V 100W switching led driver.

I do some random stuff with LEDs. I have a bedside lamp which started life as a olive wood mortor and pestle and also a light next to the TV which started life as an incandescent and is now a led light.

I am awaiting ‘itsonlyme’ to get back to me with an address etc, if I get no reply by Friday the 17th I’ll pick someone else as the wife is giving me grief with it laying round the house lol!
Until then it’s his as I promised it to him :slight_smile:

The heatsink was already attached to it, was an all in one high bay fitting - they had fitted them in a local swimming pool but this one apparently started to flicker, so they changed it.

I think it’s only me and him who are after it at the moment.

Shall I mention I’m an old school 2E1 :wink:

Ok, just to let everyone know, it’s gone to itsonlyme. Have fun with it!
