Dude, Hank posted that 
I know that . This link was active long ago before Hank posted he found some old xp-g2’s ! This link doesn’t indicate old/new batch , it’s his general xp-g2 s4 2b link he had , with “new” xp-g2’s .
Hank people are bit confused now…
Are this good old emitters or bad new one? New one is not a King… New is :confounded:
If I say King, of course they are the old ones, the same as you got :sunglasses:
Thanks Hank for the clarification :+1: :+1: :+1:
I give them 2 hours max before they will be gone.

Be fast guys!
Maybe because that is what he wants to do? 
Ain’t it a bitch when some refuse to run with the herd? :+1:
I’m always open to suggestions haha 
Many times there is somenthing in front of me but i ” can’t ” see it .
(Hahaa with me it’s) After the smoke clears…. :person_facepalming:
I’m just trying to understand why.
I don’t see the benefit of FET drivers with this LED. Only buck drivers will ensure full output for the longest possible time and the GT comes with a perfectly capable one.
I would really be interested how to convert the stock driver to drive a 3V led . If you have some info it would be great , i think we made enough spam here 
Edit :
I think i will make a question on the “GT modding” thread .
BTW , i think driving an LED with 4* 18650 isn’t much different than using a buck driver , i think we had a discussion with Dale about this some time ago .
Interesting to see what kind of current these will handle.
Pretty sure they will be popping before 6 amps, though.
This test from Köf3 shows the maximum possible brightness (I supplied him with the LED, it was a real one):
His sample seems to have an especially high Vf.
From memory (which isn’t always that good), I think the problem I was having was with the buck driver spiking briefly at turn-on, which was blowing the bond wires.
That is possible. Some people had that problem with newer XM-L2 LEDs around two years ago. I would just set the buck driver to 5A and try that. The brightness difference is not visible anyway.
LOL. I guess I was wrong
Just tested it in my L2 dedomed. 316 kcd and 975 lumens.
I notice it is still showing 180pcs in stock, 6 months later.
Now it’s still 180pcs in stock…
