MaxFlex settings:
UIB interface (5 levels)
Output current on high = 1000mA

Estimated output:
4x 114 – 122 lumens = 456 – 488 lumens @ 350 mA (912 – 976 lumens at 1A).

Runtime at the lower levels is ~ runtime next higher level x 2.

Another Ellie spotted in Norway last summer and now on its way to Spain. ;)
:thanks: for looking.

Beautiful work Icarus! Clean and precise as always from you.

I like all of the Elephant customs, but the quad is one of my favorites.

Wow. Nice work! I gotta get back into this. 900 lumens in LED is awesome! A multiple LED light driven nicely by Li Ion like yours is sooo tempting...

Nice Freddy!

The quad-Cree is a great thrower, with great runtime. XRE's are old news, but my fav lights are built with them. It's hard to beat the throw of an XRE with the newer multi-die emitters.

:thanks: my friends for the kind words.

Except for the aspheric mods this is the best throwing clustered led light I've seen so far. :whistle:

Hi Freddy,


Good to see you modding again.


Nice move going with the Cree emitters.

I`ve lways favored them in the McR Reflectors for throw.


Beutiful light and mod as always.


Cheers,
Benny

Hi Benny,

The Cree XR-E and McR27XR are indeed a great combination for throw.

Hi criollo,



Thanks for sharing, I'm sorry that I could not get those heat-sinks you wanted in time for your trip.



With regards,
Jo @ Britelumens
