Hi,
I’m new at this forum, but i hope that i post this in the right area (if not, please tell me or move it).
I bought a 501 from aliexpress, with strobe function (which i want to use only) and i noticed that it does not have any memory.
ok, now what i want to do:
buy a new driver circuit (the led emitter inside is the cree xm-l) with a MCU (not sure how mutch current i need, but i think the 4*7135 should be enough)
buy a color screen (red and green)
reprogram the MCU with strobe only mode with battery saving mode (based on the johnnyC code?)
what i need to know:
is this driver good enough?
(i need it shipped to the netherlands, so shipping from america is expensive)
any tips/tricks that i have to watch out for?
what i know:
C programming
how to program a MCU
basic electronics
