SALE: JM-PhD-D1 PWM Hotwire Regulator

[Juggernaut]

This is all great news! This seems to be exactly what I’m looking far! Ok it’s late so some time tomorrow I’ll tweak the specifications I want and PM you with my ordering information. Thanks for the Help.

Just post your order info in this thread.

[JimmyM]

JimmyM,

i screwed up and didnt paste info in PayPal, sorry. If you would be so kind to email me i can supply shipping address and such. Im the guy from
Bartlett, TN 38135. Thanks

I just shipped your regulator. Sorry for the delay. I had travel for work and it just got lost in the shuffle.

[JimmyM]

OK. I'm looking to clear out some of these to make some capital for new projects.

Until Midnight (US Eastern time) on Monday Sept 7th...
If you buy 3 you get 1 free.
Not too bad.

Operation Mode: Standard
Vbulb: 31.0V
Vlow: 32.0V
Softstart: Slow
Low Volt Warning: Pulsing
Low volt shutdown: Timed:15 seconds
Over Temp trigger: 70C
Over Temp Shutdown: Yes, 10 seconds:
Response: 1/2 second
battery staring voltage = 38.4V - (32 volts “Vlow” would be 1V per cell)
　
Ok I’m going to take one of these. Everything seems to be in order. Though I have never used PayPal through a Email Address, what do you want me to post in the Email? You can PM me if you want.

Your 38.4V figure is based on a starting voltage of 1.2V/cell. NiMH cells are more like 1.4-1.45V fresh off the charger.
32 cells at 1.4V each is 44.8V. Too high for this regulator. You would have to reduce your cell count to 27. That would make the starting voltage 39.15V MAX. At 1.2V/cell (nominal) your pack would be 32.4V. At 1.0V/cell shutdown, the Vlow would be 27.0V.
Please reconsider your cell count and application of this regulator.

Well that kills that idea. There is no feasible way for me to simply use 27 cells instead of 32 “it’s complicated”.

However I can resurrect my other build then:

Operation Mode: Standard
Vbulb: 15.0V
Vlow: 16.0V
Softstart: Slow
Low Volt Warning: Pulsing
Low volt shutdown: Timed:15 seconds
Over Temp trigger: 70C
Over Temp Shutdown: Yes, 10 seconds:
Response: 1/2 second
battery staring voltage = 19.2V (Hot off the charger: 23.2V)- 16 volts “Vlow” would be 1V per cell.

OK. That will work just fine.

8 regulators and your battery (thanks for the loaner) shipped today via Priority Mail.

[secondtimearound]

Hey Jimmy,

I'd like to take advantage of your buy 3 get 1 free deal. But i aint got my settings figured yet. Can i pay ya now and give specs later so you can set em up for me then? I dont have a clue how to program these.

Thanks

Sure. That will work.

[secondtimearound]

Ok then if you would please set all 4 of them the same as the first you sent . 8.3V 7.2V all else the default settings.

Paypal sent for $127

Thanks again.

Will do.
Thanks.

EDIT: Standard Mode or Multi-Level? Confirm Vbulb 8.3, Vlow 7.2

Thank you.

Thank you.

Gotcha.

[Juggernaut]

I got my driver, but…..Um why does it say 32.0-31.0 on the back? Did you accidentally use my older “unusable specs” because the board I ordered:

Operation Mode: Standard
Vbulb: 15.0V
Vlow: 16.0V
Softstart: Slow
Low Volt Warning: Pulsing
Low volt shutdown: Timed:15 seconds
Over Temp trigger: 70C
Over Temp Shutdown: Yes, 10 seconds:
Response: 1/2 second
battery staring voltage = 19.2V (Hot off the charger: 23.2V)- 16 volts “Vlow” would be 1V per cell.

It is for any entirely different light with different settings =15.0V to bulb, low bulb 16 volts, which I would assume you would write on the back of the board Not the old voltages I required. Obviously if I tired this setup and the driver was wired wrong it would go immediately into DD “low voltage pulsing” and blow my bulb instantly from the 19.2 volts from the batteries. These bulbs cost $35+ and I am not willing to make that sacrifice. So will you please respond before I try this out.

Oops. It is indeed programmed for your later specs (15/16V) I had written the voltage on the back. But it didn't update itself after I reprogrammed it .

Ok great! I thought that might have happened. So I’ll fire it up.

Also thanks for the great respond time.

Pulsing is not inherently Direct Drive. It would pulse between 71% and 50% of the Vbulb. However, sice your original specs were 32V Vbulb, it would try to pulse between 16V and 22.7V Obviously since your pack is only 19.2V it would pulse between 16V and direct drive. But the end effect would be the same.

What bulb are you using?

[Juggernaut]

What bulb are you using?

One of my numerous Sealed beam 12.8 volt Par bulbs.

[LuxLuthor]

Jimmy, got those latest 8 puppies. I should be set with regulated light for life now. LOL!

[Starlight]

$127 paypal sent for; 4 for the price of 3 regulators. Now, you have to get me programming, so I can set these.
