Re: More LionHeart HA3 Build Pics

Hi Charlie,

As its getting close to shipping now, I just wanted to remind you that I ordered 2 Pila 150-As (at $18 each),
as well as the HA3 LH. I don't know if this was clear on the
order-form

Thanks,
Daniel/

If MR. Bulk could create a compact keychain sized light that is to keychain lights like the Lionheart is to compact lights, I'd be in for several. That would be amazing.

/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thinking.gif Hummmm --
Keychain light. That would round out my Mr. Bulk custom collection quite well- - -
My VIP with it's two recharable AAs pumping juce to its emitter lodged in the BBH. My LionHeart for my EDC and then a keychain light of some kind with "of course" emence output for my car keys. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/sleepy.gif Aaa yes.

Re: More LionHeart HA3 Build Pics

I think we ought to convince Lumileds to take a 5W and make it into an RGB (should be easy, already has four diodes on board). Then Charlie can make a keychain light that is very bright and allows any color desired too. Of course then a 5mw DPSS 532nm laser diode should be installed in the battery cap for good measure. Talk about upping the ante! I hope Mr. Fusion's technology can be downsized, we're gonna need some power! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

>>I have already gotten more boards on the way to make up these few additional, uh - "rare"? "collectable"? - ones, with either TWOJ or TYAJ/OJ Luxeon IIIs going into them, and I will likely offer them up in a bit at a slightly inflated price (hey, maybe on e-bay?) after the main batches of lights are done being delivered.

Call me interested. Very interested, if you can squeeze a noticable difference in brightness from them. This should be a month or two away from now?

Re: More LionHeart HA3 Build Pics

bmstrong,

Yes, I got more than a few inquiries about that. This is one of the responses I just sent out:

Rest assured all LionHearts have T-binned Lux3's in them, either J or K binned Vf. That is because some overachiever K's will actually outperform the J's and vice versa, so I have to test each one for brightness before they are used due to the still-alive Luxeon Lottery, although the gaps in ratings are getting narrower all the time.

I stated the Luxeon specs for the "error lights" because those are the Bin Codes I happen to have now (can't really get much better ones, at least not in quantity, at this juncture in Luxeon history anyway) and I didn't want anyone thinking these lights would be any less capable in any way aside for the missing the top half of the "H" in the logo marking.

The middle two digits denote color, with WO supposedly being more "natural" and the YA/YO's being more "HID-like" (blue/aqua-white), but color is SUCH an objective thing that I don't test for that; I simply hunt down the color bin codes that are supposed to be the "whitest" or "blue-whitest" and test only for brightness using a constant current bench power supply for consistency.

HTH's...

Re: More LionHeart HA3 Build Pics

Mr.Bulk ,How many cells are you short? I ordered the LionHeart 1 150a then sent for the number 118. I would be willing to drop the 150a to help others (and get mine sooner) without a refund on my payment,perhaps I am not alone here others might or even if I stand alone my offer is for real the 18.00 bucks could be used to help feed the HAT Team or donated to CPF or help defray extra costs that have bit you. Your call Sir I and others will respect it. Besides I know A guy that can fix me up with Pila stuff if I need it. He is MY Pila guy.

My Lion is hopefully already roaring in the cargo hold of a 747 transatlantic mail clipper. I dropped all batteries since I got some here and just can't wait any longer. Cheers to the HAT team.

Re: More LionHeart HA3 Build Pics

Charlie,

You're the man /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif! As with others who have posted here, have no fear about the delays. We're all with you on this.

BTW if by chance a local detective yanks yer chain about ignoring 6 lovely college women (all members of the U of H soccer team) who live at the bottom of a hill, the top of which is noted for unsavory activities, you'll know who to blame as the instigator /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif LOL

All the best and my hat is off to you and the HAT team for the efforts being expended; and to Jon for his helping with the battery situation!

--Bob
