Driver Info: HX-1175b & HX-1175B1 (Pic Heavy)

I tested my driver and it is now installed in the light and wired to the MTG. Just have to complete the carrier and wait for my 18500s to arrive…cross your fingers it all works.

I’m using an HX1175B buck driver.

With two 18650 it drove an MT-G2 at 3.5A, and with three cells it drove the same emitter at 7A.

Why the difference in current readings? I’ve used LCK 5A buck drivers with MTG and two cells and got the full 5A. What is different about the HX1175B that it won’t produce 7A with two cells.

I’m not worried about it, I just want to know how it works.

Is this normal behavior for this driver? via post #43 here.
