I wasnt recommending 2, I used that number to demonstrate how important it would be with 9 or 12. I get why you need them, voltage and run time.
Keeppower are a decent battery. IIRC< they use the KK cell as they dont make them themselves, they just relabel and add a protection circuit, but I think they use Chinese circuits. Im not sure who uses a Seiko circuit for example on a KK 26650. Personally Id opt for 18650 as they would make for a better fit in a tube, with less wasted space.
just need to find a drivers
any suggestion?
Pay attention to the XHP70 thread.
As I said though in edit which by your quote appears you didnt see, personally Id opt for 18650 as they would make for a better fit in a tube, with less wasted space.
Basically every driver in the mt-g2 thread should work with the XHP70
Option 1 is you fix yourself to a number of batterys and search for a driver that fits your supplied voltage.
Or option 2 is you look for a good driver with a good user interface, good mode spacing and the amps you want to give the led and built the rest to fit the driver (this is the better option I think)
ok thanks, i’m a begineer
will need to read, too much new word.
if i use a canister with a diameter of 60mm i could put 3x26650 or 5x18650.
so i i put 3 level, i can put 15 battery x 3400mA
just need to setup all theses batterie.
are there any how to with driver for beginer?
Yeah, but search is less than optimal with the sites old buggy software, at least I find it buggy. Theres actually many threads on various drivers here, including drivers designed by people here. IN the search bar, try MTG2 driver or mt-g2 driver and spend some time going over the results, theres some clued on people here. There is a thread on drivers for MT-G2 but Ive never read it so cant say how many ideas are in there but it asks the question what driver are people using so likely has a lot of ideas.
Here ya go, start here, I still havent read it though…
Taskled has some of the highest quality drivers ready made and the HPflex 6A buck driver would certainly do the trick with a 4 series by 3 parallel battery set up. With any buck driver you will need at least 1V above the forward voltage of the emitter to regulate. For a primary dive light I wouldn’t reccomend going cheap when you’re spending that much on cells. Flex drivers are a bit of a pain to program but that’s mainly due to the high number of options that can be programmed. If you end up using one with a reed switch I’d reccomend wiring in(or using jumper cables) a second momentary switch just to program it. Much easier than long/short “clicks” with a reed switch.
Not read the entire thread, so apologies if this is already covered. But if you aren’t constrained to a tube to the put the batteries in, would a high capacity LiPo as used in the RC world maybe suit better?
4S 16,000 mAh
2S 13,000 mAh (could run say two or three of these in parallel)
