Feeler for flat top Mag D heatsink.

vestureofblood · Apr 23, 2011

Hi everyone,

I recently inquired about the heat sinks found here at the Shoppe.

Cindy replied to my email saying that they were considering a run depending on interest, and suggested I start a thread to gauge on the forum.

If you wold like to see a run of these please post in this thread how many you think you would be willing to buy. Lets try to keep this real so they dont end up with a run of 100 heat sinks and only sell 15 of them.

My personal interest is 1 for sure maybe more after I try them out.

Thanks:wave:

I personally need more information. The heat sink is part of a system. From what I gather, the big advantage of this sink is its flat top, allowing a modder to mount clusters of LEDs (not just one central LED). Thus, it would be useful to know what is the distance between the sink's top surface and the inside face of the Mag glass when this sink is fully inserted into the Mag tube and the Mag head/bezel both fully screwed down and unscrewed (but tube o-ring still engaged). And from this dimension, what reflectors or optics are available, if any, that will fit this distance when using common LEDs (e.g., XR-Es, XP-Gs, XM-Ls, MC-Es) when reflowed onto various stars/MCPCBs? A fit table of available reflectors/optics from the Shoppe would be highly useful, perhaps in the form of:

Code:

                                                 Suggested Reflector/Optic

Hi Justin,

I could be wrong about this, but to me it looks like you would have some adjustment on the height. To me it appears that the post at the bottom would slip down into the neck and you could raise and lower it, then epoxy it at the right distance.

I have sent an email to Cindy for confirmation on this.

+1 This information would be very helpful.

I sent Wayne a PM with a link to this thread so perhaps he will be able to answer some of these questions.
