thank you. I'll be picking up a light op, deep module this friday then i hope!I have all deep reflectors in OP, Light OP, and smooth left.

Hi, I have a quick question.
Since the star is copper, can't you just solder the star to the brass pill? It sounds like you are using arctic alumina or arctic silver.
Hi thanks for the response.Soldering the star with LED to the pill requires lots of heat. That would destroy the LED for sure.
If I solder the star onto the pill without the LED then I can't center the LED with the reflector.
If I do mange to center the star in the reflector I still cant flow the LED on top without everything drifting around.
All the extra heat is really no good for me, the led, or centering the LED in the reflector.
Plus I sodler fill my pill. TOo much heat and the solder will flow out.
In short too much heat destroy everything and/or shift everything around and is dangerous for me.
Hi thanks for the response.
I understand that it would be a lot more work and I don't know exactly how you're making your drop-ins and in what order you do things so this may not work out so easily but I would imagine that using a higher temperature lead-free solder like an SnAgCu solder will give you a good ~20C+ temperature window over SnPb 63/37.
Remember. To wap the drop. Tight. With foil. Love. The sc31 too!
I did
thanks for your excellent products! I'm gonna show my officers tonight the module running in a FM Cerakoted orange Cooly (26650 IMR in the host) and I can tell you right now they'll be blown away
I don't know in what order you put together you components but as a general guideline I would solder the first components with a lead-free solder and then that will give you some working space where SnPB 63/37 solder will melt but lead-free will not.Are we talking about the solder used for solder fill?
glad to hear it buddy!Lovin your SC31 more and more! I love Zebralights.
Can you offer these with multi mode and no memory?
