I recommend using 2S buck drivers with high Vf thrower LEDs 
This is why I love my L6s/L7s. 100% power ability every time I launch them

That is hilarious, … but still concerning.
And it is basically begging for a change in the refund- & return-policy.

This lens is too heavy to be used for making a flashlight.

Why? is polycarbonate

This used to be a selling point for Maglite

LHP73B high CRI will definitely be good XHP replacement since those are usually green tint.
Although it would be nice if there was a MCPCB which could wire them for 6V to use in other lights with boost drivers that use 6V/12V like XHP70
I’ve seen people cutting the regular 3V MCPCB copper in half so a wire could be used to bridge it to 6V. As the 12V XHP ones rely on the DTP to bridge the contacts, which is not desired for a flashlight with not insulated head.
Do you think you could make a 6V (12V) one if the LHP73B gets more use?

Would this MCPCB work?
If you isolate the MCPCB from the shelf it should… Anodized shelf and no MCPCB screw.
I already messaged @zezol directly, but I published the repo with all my flashlight PCBs… I had totally forgotten about it…

Speaking for myself, I would buy the 6v mcpcb to install convoy leds in my wurkkos and sofirn lights. It would be awesome to have a Wurkkos ts22 with the lhp73b…

while we are at MPCB… can we maybe get mpcbs like this in the future?
Without the extra isolation layer

That’s how every direct thermal path copper core PCB works, so pretty much every MCPCB in our average flashlights that is not for LEDs like B35AM, or the super cheap alu core ones.

Are you sure about this? this would be good news but i thought most still use the conventional MPCBs
1 Thank
As far as I am aware the entire flashlight scene has been using almost exclusively DTP for years now - including brands as Sofirn, Convoy, Wurkkos etc.
It’s easy to check, just take a multimeter and measure for continuity from thermal pad to copper substrate. It should come as 0 Ohm (or some slight contact resistance where the tips touch the copper). I don’t have a MCPCB without LEDs at hand right now.

You have no SFT-70 replacement, it’s a throwy emitter meanwhile LHP531 is way more floody in the same reflector.

It should also work fine in a light that has the driver isolated, like a Hank or FFL.
