I am designing a headlamp for precision work.
The requirements are:
- 60K lux at 40cm distance
- dimmable
- zoomable
- lightweight
Here is the source of inspiration:
Here is the prototype built with a easy2led housing and GoPro parts:
The driver compartment:

Resulting beamshot:
The current housing is too heavy, so I am designing a new one:
Currently I am using this Recom driver: RCD-24-1.20 Recom Power | Power Supplies - Board Mount | DigiKey
and a Cree XP-L HI
the result is only 30k lux at 1.2A
I have a bunch of various lenses and 30k lux is so far the best result. How can I improve this result?
I have ordered Osram Black top and will try it.
