Re: New prototype switch arrived !!!

I'm in for one of these whenever they are available. Hopefully it can work in the G2Z tailcap too! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif

Re: New prototype switch arrived !!!

Would this fit in a U2 tailcap?

If so, do you think it would work?
And give the U2 two brightness ranges?

jtice,
One of the first things I tried was the 2 stage on the U2! High and low versions of preselected level. Should be cool! Not! Didn't work. The light flickers on low switch level. No joy! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif

Re: New prototype switch arrived !!!

Still, the new switch works with the L6, my LED module on the M4, and the 3W LED module from BOG, so there are plenty of C/M hosts other than the U2 which would benefit from this /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

Re: New prototype switch arrived !!!

The boards have been ordered. Just waiting for them now. I think they were ordered with a 10 working day schedule. Has it been two weeks?

I usually get email notfication when they ship. Haven't seen it yet, but, I expect one any day now.

Update:

The boards arrived yesterday. After inspection I noticed I goofed the inside hole size. I'll have to scrap these and re-order correcting the hole diameter.

Sorry for the delay, I'll keep you posted on any updates.

Re: New prototype switch arrived !!!

Got the new boards in. I built up and converted my Turbo Cyan into a two stage Cyan monster!!! Awesome.

There is a small glitch. I was expecting 30 boards or so. I only have 6 of which I used one /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif and now there are 5.

With this few, I think we should start a list and I'll discuss the logistics with Don who will handle the orders.

If there is a list, we will start a separate thread.

Re: New prototype switch arrived !!!

Great news on getting the boards /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/goodjob.gif

I want to buy 3 of them, but with only 5 available, sign me up for one at this time - this will allow other CPF's to test these as well.

Who do we send the payment to?

Hi Wayne -

Do you plan to have more of these made? I would like to buy several when available.

Thanks - John

That was my expectation as well - we would get the pieces and build them ourselves /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

Wayne, do you still have these early boards with the incorrect hole size? I might be able to do something with these.

Re: New prototype switch arrived !!!

John,

I've got a bunch. How many did you need? If it's just a couple I can toss them in the mail to you. Drop my a pm or email me.
