I got a request today for an IR light. I am not very familiar with these lights personally, so I did a little research on here about them, and here’s what I got. I read that they work better with an aspheric lens, so I got an UF-T20 host laying around in thought about using. I was going to use an Osram OSLON 4725S IR LED on a 16mm mcpcb, and a Nanjg 101-AK-A1 driver, one chip removed. Not sure if I should use a 3 mode driver or 1? Let me know what you guys think of this set up. Again, I’m new to these lights.
Can someone at least tell me what mcpcb to use for these? Mtnelectronics.com is out of stock, so I may have to buy it bare, and do the flow myself. Also, in their description, it says that if there is any electrical conductivity between the pill and the mcpcb, it will kill the led. Is the thermal epoxy really enough to stop any electrical current between the pill and the mcpcb? I’m guessing you can’t screw these to the pill then either?
