This one:

yep, its a tight fit but goes in with the thermal pad broken up and crammed in around as best you can.

I’m now just in the process of getting the best out of the focus, fmc reports 300kcd from a dedomed xp-g2 with the focus correct and a few old lumens tricks to get the wires away from the star, check my convoy l2 second iteration thread.

You didn’t say whether you wanted a host that takes one, or two cells.

I know flomotion likes his two cell lights, he’ll love the l2 and I find it much easier to push things hard with two cells.

You can order it with either Smooth or OP Reflector for XP-G @ 12.00

Driver Qlite 3.04 amp @ 4.19 from http://intl-outdoor.com/qlite-reva-71358-multiple-modes-circuit-board-304a-p-710.html

You didn't say if you wanted a thrower, general purpose light or what. I'd say Convoy M1, the L2 if you really want to spend that much. Or go with this hot new light which hasn't been received and reviewed yet.

EDIT - Oh wait! You did order one of these!

Can the XP-G2 on Sinkpad take 5 amps?

Well it can take 4A just fine by Match's test and the graph shows it still climping:

djozz pushed one a lot harder than 5a and thats what deft x’s run at so I’m happy so far, there are others that have done the same. I was running one at 3a on alu so I’m happy at 5a, plus its quite a nice driver so far.

Unless you get one with all the disco modes, which seems to be what they’ve been shipping lately.

Has anyone tried LCK-LED's 9A driver? I think Gords should and report back to us! :)

-Garry

I just got two of the 5a drivers linked above. both are 3 mode, no plans for 9a drivers as yet, I have another couple of projects planned first, I will be ordering one of their skyray king drivers to try out though.

Well, I just finished a new triple XP-G2 (not on Sinkpad though), using a 3.04a driver from IS, so it seems like I have a lot of headroom, but, there’s no way I could fit a 5A driver into the UF S5 hosts :).
