I just checked with the place I ordered these from before and now the price is almost double. I sent the design to a couple more places for quoting.

I am very interested in 1, just sent you a PM.

I’m continuing (possibly futile) attempts to at least partially work around the sudden drop from turbo. Tonight’s experience was a bit puzzling. Using a timer and a fully charged Shockli 5500 I clicked “full” turbo and waited. After 1 minute there was no apparent dimming. After 1:50 minutes I thought perhaps there had been slight dimming, though I wasn’t sure. I double clicked and there was full turbo again, but the difference was relatively small.

So, instead of a nearly immediate very noticeable drop there was (to the eye) a barely perceptible dimming after almost 2 minutes run. Why hadn’t the sudden drop occurred? Does using fully charged batteries affect the results? I’m assuming this was a fluke and I was just lucky.

I’ll continue with these attempts later.

Sorry, brightnorm… all of these were gone a long time ago. I have checked several times about buying more, but the manufacturing costs have increased considerably. To the point that each heatsink kit would probably cost $25 + shipping if not more. And that’s assuming an order quantity of 20 or so. If I could get them made for what I bought them previously, I’d gladly organize another batch.

OK, thanks.

Does the standard MF01S (not the MINI) have the issue of plastic vs copper plate?

It doesn’t not have this issue as it doesn’t have 7135 chips. The MF01 mini now comes with a brass plate so it no longer has the stepdown issue.

Vinh hasn’t seen those. Do you know who sells them?

I checked and both of mine have the brass plate.

Interested in 2 London

Interested in one if a group buy ever occurs again.

Sawadee · 2024-03-04T16:16:00.307Z

Interested in one if this happens again.

The current (as of i think 2022) versions all shipped with a brass version of this heatsink, but no thermal paste so you’ll want to add some. There’s not much differemce between the two.

Sawadee · 2024-03-04T23:57:52.477Z

I have an old unit 2019-2000 with the white plastic HS….
But thanks

This is an excellent light.
