    best LED for DIY fixed lighting?

    The Cree XPG3 would be the best LED for the Job ( low price, high light output at 1 watt power ).

    Tech help - identifying a charging chip?

    Yes, the link is for TP4057. The resister R2 is employed to set the charging current. Adjust the charging current according to the specifications of the battery.

    Heat sink for 3w leds copper soldered

    If you talking about the power consumption and assume the Vf of the LED is 3V driven at 500mA ( not including the power loss of the driver ), you are right. If you talking about the light output, a 40W standard bulb has about 400 - 550 Lm output, you need only about 6W for LED. Nowadays, the...

    Please help me repair the swich on budget CREE light

    It looks like a 6x6 surface mount tactile switch which has variant of different push rod height. Measure the sizes of your switch and the push rod height before you place the order.

    Heat sink for 3w leds copper soldered

    I think the LED would survive. It depends on the ambient temperature and application. I have a similar built which is very uncomfortable hot to hold by hand. The thermal path of my light is LED --> Al block --> Copper tube and End cap. If you solder the LED directly to the bottom of the end cap...

    Mean Well LDD-1500LW driver and 4 Cree XMl's .... Wiring in series or parallel?

    A full charged li-ion cell is 4.2V and which should be cut off at 2.5 - 2.8V. So 5S li-ion cells should be adequate. 2.8V x 5 = 14V and 4.2V x 5 = 21V both values are higher than 14V mean that the LEDs are all in current regulated during the whole battery discharging period. 4S 2100mA each LED...

    Mean Well LDD-1500LW driver and 4 Cree XMl's .... Wiring in series or parallel?

    I think you have three options. 1) 4S 1500mA each LED 306.9lm 3.14V 4.71W. Total 4 LEDs 1,227.6lm 12.56V 18.84W. 2) 2S2P 750mA each LED 166lm 2.92V 2.19W. Total 4 LEDs 664lm 5.84V 8.76W. 3) 4P 375mA each LED 85lm 2.77V 1.03W. Total 4 LEDs 340lm 2.77V 4.12W. If you want the brightest output...

    How can I estimate the thermal resistance of the thermal grease layer?

    Thanks for your advice. I have omitted the "16" fudge factor:thinking:

    How can I estimate the thermal resistance of the thermal grease layer?

    Thanks for your valuable information. I estimated the thermal resistance this way. If I am wrong, please correct me. Suppose the LED is an XML, the thermal pad area = 0.0028 x 0.0048 m = 0.00001344 sq. m. R = t / K * A = 0.0004 m ( thermal grease thickness ) / 6 ( thermal grease's heat...

    How can I estimate the thermal resistance of the thermal grease layer?

    Hi CPF guys, I am going to mount a 20mm star MCPCB to a 37x37x23mm heatsink. The thermal grease's heat conductivity is 6.0 W/m*K. Suppose I can apply the layer as thin as 0.4mm thick, can I estimate the thermal resistance of the layer?
