The spacing on those vias is 1/10ā so you can solder in a 2-pin header and use a plug from the backside. I think thatās better for series LEDs that use 1/3 the current.
Good question, if we made quads, should we do 24mm to suit Carclo 106xx series optics or 32mm to Ledil Cute 4?

holes will suit 20AWG, 18 at a pinch with some trim
Yes hole pitch designed to suit .1'' (2.54mm) headers

Why did I know you were going to say that
Thanks for considering it even that is very good news.
I am mostly interested in the 32mm for the CUTE-4, because with XP-Lās those who have tested those limited run i think russian made 24mm DTP quads with the carlco optics, have showed about the same lumens as the 32mm CUTE-3 triple. But the CUTE-4 quad should be an improvement.
But still for other ledās the 24mm DTP quad would be interesting, so i agree why not both there is already demand for it and a market for both, i am pretty sure i could have a use for both
Can you do a Luxeon Rebel triple? Cajampa and I have been kicking around the need for a 20mm parallel triple Rebel for a while.
yes we have a 20mm triple with Rebel/Cree
would just need to make a TPAD version of it
> use the vias and jumpers for parallel ā¦
Can you show a picture of how that wiring and jumper setup for parallel looks?
Thatās doable with the 20mm Rebel triple currently available?
The current PCB is 2 resistors that create a series config, you would need to wire external for parallel
The top board is current, the lower one is a new 20mm TPAD, but we have yet to order any yet, but we would need to mod to again take Rebels

Thanks, I doubt thereās a market for making parallel rebel boards or someone would have done it.
KD has premade parallel boards with Nichias and a variety of different XPL-HIs as well, but not for Rebels
Iām going to try the twisted-teflon-wire method shown in A Day of Fails and Other Fun with Osram Oslon SSL 4000K 92CRI Emitters. Day Two: Fail becomes a Win. New emitters and a new tint for wiring
These arenāt copper!
If you want to use them for 3amps in total they might be ok , but use only noctigon/tpad copper boards if you have the ability to buy .
There is no problem in fact that they are non-copper.
Even it is not big problem that they are non-DTP.
The biggest problem is that they (as 99% other chinese boards) have very bad design with small width and thickness copper layer and whole copper area.
