Aluminum headlamp for P60 drop ins - proto pics

[psychbeat]

hmm. or single 18650- as most of the new drop-ins seem
to like less than 6 volts.. Im thinkin nailbender SST 50

or they could be in parallel right?

Moddoo Nice headlamp.

Was just thinking that the cooling would be more efficient if
the heat sink grooves you machined into the head piece would
be oriented lengthwise so the air, you were moving through ,would travel
down the valleys carrying the heat away. (90 deg to your existing design)

Probably not necessary even if the lamp was being driven way over max.
Was thinking of it mounted on a bike, the wind flow etc..

Traplight,

Your rendering looks a lot like the Little Monkey, a new caving headlamp that just became available.

Someone revive this project!

The headlamp doesn't even need to use the P60 reflector, as long as it fits the P60 pill.

hmm, several posts lost in the great CPF disaster of 2011.

I'm still working on this project.

Aiming for this summer sometime.

Designing something does take a long time.

Especially when other projects get in the way.

I'd love to see how it has evolved!

Please don't forget about the Malkoff module owners out there when considering compatibility.

It is already getting dark here in Alaska. My petzyls have new batteries. I wish I had a malkoff in a headlamp

 

[kevinm]

Running a prototype now...

 

[psychbeat]

single or dual and will they be for sale

 

[kevinm]

Single, built like a tank, and yep (for sale soon)! It barely got warm with a Solarforce drop in on high and the dropin itself was close to the same temp.

I'm thinking natural HA, but the shop here makes a nice purple and does other colors, too.
