Hi guys!
maybe you remember… i won a TC500 from Hopback for Christmas
He swapped the xml for a de-domed xpg2 on a maxtoch direct copper PCB
and centered it pretty well…
when i received the light i could not resist and tried to adjust it a bit more - and was sucessful .
but then i also wanted to push the Amps also and got to the Question: Where was L+ connected?
the R100 got another one piggybacked and
i changed to AWG18 silicone wires (ended drilling new holes in the head)
(no pictures because of pure uglyness )
then i filed the PCB - added another shim - thermal paste - a lot filing on the reflector - sanding the biggest mounains off my solder “work”
(your eyes could not stand the mess - so: no pictures here… )
well i ended here:
not sooo bad centered…
the reflector touches the PCB
Amp @ emitter | low | mid | high |
TC500 before | 0.25 | 1.2 | 2.4 |
TC500 mod | 0.45 | 2.17 | 4.45 |
.
k Lux | low | mid | high |
TC500 1m | 15 | 74,5 | 140 |
TC500 5m | 0.98 | 4.3 | 7.4 |
HD2010 5m | - | - | 6.2 |
TC500 calc 5 to 1m | 24.5 | 107.5 | 185 |
calc 5 to 1m = reading x 25 right?
HD2010 has a dedomed XM-L2, BLFDD17 @ 4,3A
well - i hunted a gray wall also…
standing 3m from the wall at beginning
you can see the dounut disappear at 40cm distance
