Hi All,
Basically I have 2 projects.
1) I lathed a (3) Battery 123A Cell flashlight body and need to machine a head for it with a LED module and circuit. I am basically wondering what the best LED and driver is right now? I want it to be a very powerful thrower, not as concerned with how long battery lasts.
2) While I am at it, I am making 2 LED drop in modules for a surefire M3T and M3 standard bezel. I have both heads for my M3 and want LED drop-ins. I have lathed the "post" to the same dimensions as the regular bulbs and I need to mount a LED on top and have a ciruit for it underneath. What are your opinions on the best LED module and circuit that I can mount on this and still fit it through the reflector opening without modification to the reflector?
I saw someone used a SSC-P4 or a XP-G? What is the best that can fit and what driver board do you use? How do you choose?
Thanks,
Dirk
