Re: Custom built triple CREE XP-E <> P-60 drop-ins. PRE-PAY SALE

Hi moddoo,

I'm not sure if this question has been asked, but is it possible to have 3 different tinted XP-Es installed?

Say a WC, WG and warm white emitter?

Could this perhaps improve the overall CRI of the light?

Thanks!

Confirmed by Cutter,
they will build mixed bin triples for me. :twothumbs

Just look on their site and pick your emitters, and let me know what you think will be best.

Getting my parts list together now.
I will put the first order through this evening.

Re: Custom built triple CREE XP-E <> P-60 drop-ins. PRE-PAY SALE

would it be possible if one of your drop-ins can be custom-fitted with 2x narrow w/ 7A warm, and 1x frosted-wide w/ R2 WG?
3-levels driver..... low,med,hi

I can build the unit with the emitters you like.
But you will need to cut/paste the optics yourself.

IMO, this will be difficult to get done nicely.

I'll have one drop in with the R2 WG, Q5 WM, and the P4 7C emitter..
LO-MID-HI driver, frosted wide optics and narrow lens front both loose,
+ international shipping.

Total's $80 + $8 + $6 = $94, is that correct?

Thanks for making these for us :thumbsup:

Couple of questions, how well do the lights hold their regulation, and is heat a problem on continuous usage on high?

Thanks!

That is the correct pricing.

I do not have any concrete e#s on the regulation.
The 7135 drivers have been discussed in depth on CPF.
I hope a search can provide answers to any questions you might have.

Thanks

need an Idiots guide to Custom built triple CREE XP-E <> P-60 drop-ins. PRE-PAY SALE

I'll be using the dropin in a solarforce L2. How do I get the 3 light levels? I already mailed a check for the dropin; should I have also ordered a driver as well? Incidentally, what is a driver? This is only my 2nd mod and my 1st AA mag hotwire was fairly simple.... thanks

Re: Custom built triple CREE XP-E <> P-60 drop-ins. PRE-PAY SALE

Runtime would need to be calculated.
I'll have some AW 18650 2600mA soon for testing.
Depending on the driver and battery selected, you can guesstimate around 45min on high. Medium should net a couple hours of 340+ led lumens...

Moddoo, just managed to read this entire thread... this is fantastic! I'm going to see if I can rummage up some extra funds for this drop-in... :thumbsup: It's going to be interesting to compare output, runtimes vs. my P7 and MCE driver... Boy, just when I thought my purchases were done for at least a couple of months (custom 3xR2 Alu bike light housing on-order, new LED thrower, new Li-Ion batteries, new P7 drop-in from previous month)... this comes along...

The drop-in changes levels by turning it on, off, on.
What you ordered is all you need. The P-60 package is cool that way.
You can now shop for any of 1000 other p-60s!!

Thanks man,

LOL, 18mm, I'll see what I can do.

*Cutters site is messed up right now.
It is impossible to order anything in USDollars.
I emailed them early today. Have not heard back yet.

*Single mode drivers are ordered.

*3 mode drivers are ordered.

*SOB drivers are ordered.

*Teflon wire has arrived

*Material for heat sinks ordered. Should get cut this week.

*Waiting on response about some quality silicone potting compound, hope to order tomorrow.

That is all for now.

Re: Custom built triple CREE XP-E <> P-60 drop-ins. PRE-PAY SALE

FYI, the 17mm driver board in the Deal Extreme SKU 11836 R2 single mode P60 drop-in uses a Yobon YB1682 buck converter IC that is rated to deliver 2A output. Don't ask me why they are using that IC for an LED that should be driven at 1A. But if you have this drop-in, the driver might be a possibility for this triple Cree XP-E drop-in, assuming the driver runs properly (I get some odd results when powering the driver with a bench power supply and the current draw is completely different for batteries when measuring the current at the tail). The IC itself is rated from 3.6V to 20V, so in theory you could drive the triple XP-E with a lot of different battery configuration options. I need to do some additional tests on this driver.

Hey, I have one of those around here somewhere...
Thanks for the info, I'll try to find it and do some testing.

UPDATE:

I called Cutter and got the pricing straightened out.
All LEDs and optics are now ordered for everyone who has paid so far.


Thank you to everyone placing orders.

Re: Custom built triple CREE XP-E <> P-60 drop-ins. PRE-PAY SALE

The solder work on that board looks bad......

 

[Justin Case]

Re: Custom built triple CREE XP-E <> P-60 drop-ins. PRE-PAY SALE

The two big solder blobs at 11 o'clock and 1 o'clock are where the LED- and LED+ wires attach. The big solder blob coming from the inductor no doubt is meant to connect to the cap for voltage ripple. The long solder bridge coming from Pin 5 of the buck IC presumably is to connect the IC's feedback pin to an external sense resistor network. Other than those, the soldering seems reasonable to me.
