Social media platforms are weird.

Little Janky Pinky (lemmy.world)

Convoy S21A with P2500 buck driver and KD full spectrum pink 10W 5050 emitter.

Fun little light, but a little off in that the Vf of the emitter is 4V on high but it didn’t play well with the convoy buck/boost driver…. So I went with a buck. Use 2x 18350 to get well regulated performance or 1x 21700 for convenience and runtime but experience voltage sag.

Either way it’s a fun light that throws well for an S21A.

Is the ZWB3 glass.

Convoy 3x21b too

SW LED Spectra (lemmy.world)

A super user took an emission spectra of one of the LEDs I use. Interesting data for sure!

Ooh yeah that’s a goner. I wonder what happened. Usually it takes a lot of extended heat to do that and that would be hard to do given the way hank sets up his lights.

It could be anything from a driver fault to a short. Just replacing the led won’t be sufficient.

I’m thinking those green indicator LEDs need to be purple…

Weird color? Check

Overkill? Check

Borderline useless? Check

Low skill? Check

Right up my alley.

Pretty straightforward. The driver is glued in, so I used debonder and pushed the driver out by pushing on the top of the driver through the switch hole with some needle nose pliers.

SP36… in pink! (lemmy.world)

I swapped out the stock emitters in an SP36 for 4 3535 sized pink emitters from KD. The output of the SP36 is pretty well matched to the pink emitters, except turbo won’t be available at a battery voltage of 3.6ish.

Not perfect but still fun. 👍

I’ve got 5 5050 and 20 3535. I’m more than happy to send you some at cost if you’re interested. I've also got a big 9090 sized blue emitter that I don't think I'm going to use if you're interested.

Outstanding! That is a very promising beam.

Sorry for the dirty emitter. I didn’t give it a clean up after the reflow.

First Lemmy post. Let’s see how this goes..!

I got some 5050 and 3535 pink emitters from KD

They’re looking like they will be fun to work with..!

👍👍

Looking good! I hope you find lots of cool stuff!
