No, I leave the domes on. It’s close but works if you’re careful about centering the emitter on the pads and press excess solder out from under them. I like the W6 5000K for the highest power factor, they have a nice tint in my opinion, better for me than higher CRI variants. If I remember right it makes around 7000 lumens, cell should be charged now so I’ll check it…
On a fresh charged 30T my Ti E07 starts off at 6610 lumens.
My clear aluminum E07 on a fresh charged 30T starts off at 7710 lumens.
What went wrong? I see some emitters look cockeyed relative to the TIR, but that could be camera angle… Or is this that some of the phosphors look discolored?
Dale, what magic are you doing to get 3/3 right? (I assume “lots of practice” might be a good part of the answer)
