This seems like the perfect candidate for the next BLF Edition light group buy.
With a copper pill, copper MPCB, increased amps and better driver, it would be interesting to see what someone could finalize the price at after it’s all said and done. I know I’m probably not alone with not having any XHP-70 or MT-G lights yet.
Sorry for the late reply…
I’m just starting to put my first lux meter to use with ceiling bounces. Compared to other lights for which i gathered some measured output through reviews, i’m guessing it to be between 2000 and 2500 lumen.
BTW: i does have a peak followed by a rather steep decay… the above estimate is after it stabilized. Not sure the batteries (2 x Soshine protected 26650 5500mAh) or the driver is to blame.
68mm reflector is the same size as the trustfire sst90. This 68mm Large reflector is very nice for xhp70 led and the 3 cell host is great for 12v setup .Perhaps even direct driving a good xhp70 would give 4000-5000ish lumens with select protected cells and lots heatsink compound. With a dedomed xhp70 and a sst90 smooth reflector, this could be a cheap and easy direct drive beast thrower.
