LED Test Stand Giveaway

Flashlight Modding and DIY Parts
1

Enelooper was kind enough to send me one of his car headlights to salvage the MT-G2 emitters from.

After removing the emitters I was able to convert the remaining heat sink into a nifty little fan cooled LED test stand.

I already have a LED test stand and would like this to go to somebody else free of charge.
It would cost to much to ship outside of US so CONUS only, sorry. GAW ends tomorrow Thurs 14th 8:PM Pacific Daylight Savings Time.
Drawing will be done on Random.org.

I found a 12 V power supply for the fan at Goodwill and also stoned the top so that LEDs will sit flat and transfer heat more efficiently through thermal grease.

Good Luck

Edit. Does not come with LED.
Make sure your post says that you want in the drawing.

Nvm, I don’t even know what’s a LED test stand is. Thought it was a portable work light.

Real nice set up! :wink: Pretty cool of you to give it away also!!! :beer: Does the fan draw thru those holes, or blow?

Sorry Dealgrabber, the LED does not come with it. It’s just a fan cooled heat sink that you can temporarily place LEDs on to test them.

Are you still in?

5

No, others will have better use for it.

Thank you for your generosity.

It pulls air from the bottom and blows it against the base of the heat sink. The fan mounting screws hold it up just enough so that air can get in underneath the fan. So there’s a good exchange of air.

I prefer testing LEDs dangling in mid air and watch them fry. Well… I guess it would be nice to have a true test setup:) I’m in. Thanks for the chance!

That was good for a laugh. :slight_smile:

If it can keep 2 MT-G2’s cool in the heat of the summer, it must be pretty decent. I want in.

It just dawned on me what holes you were talking about. The wires to the LEDs traveled through them. The holes could still be used to route wires to the LED or could be left open to allow cooling air to flow through. It’s a moot point with larger boards because they will block the holes.

I’m in for it.

Thanks

I’m in for the drawing.

What a cool fan. (See what i did there. :slight_smile: )

I’m not in (I already have the other bulb from Enelooper :wink: ) but I just wanted to check in and say thanks for doing this. I think it’s very generous of you. Hopefully, someone will find this very useful.

And the winner is… SigShooter :partying_face:

PM your address to me.

Thanks to all for playing.

Thanks Killforfood!! I was actually getting ready to build something but this is much nicer than anything I can make.
