Need to get an XP-G2 to test now :smiley:

123

Yeah, when I first saw it I was amazed. Now I'm considering trying to make one. :P

Really great work Match. I agree that the star is a likely bottleneck but entirely appropriate for these tests. I saw a nifty thermal image showing star vs reflow to copper. I also wonder if die size is a factor in the ability to tolerate overdrive.

Thanks for the nice comments guys.

Iā€™ve been off the interwebs for a bitā€¦.are these released yet?

Thank you Match for this great tests, I always check youā€™re lumen readings when I want to make a new flashlight modā€¦ Very useful.

Thanks for the compliments.

Also, don't forget to check out the real potential of these emitters when mounted directly to copper. Test results here! (One of these days I'll get the direct to copper results of the xp-g, xr-e, and xp-e up there as well...)

Here's how I mounted it, and here is another successful way by Old-Lumens.
