Red White & Blue Orb's & Raw

[orb]

This Post is for Haesslich who ordered a Modified Orb with Royal blue Lux 3 & Mc 27mm reflector.
Also 190 Lumen Red Raw for Marcspar.
Many thanks to Don for supplying me with his reflectors.[img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/buttrock.gif[/img]
Many thanks to AW for Suppling Nano's & RCR2's [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/buttrock.gif[/img]
& Thank you Photonfanatic for suppling Red/Orange Leds.[img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/buttrock.gif[/img]

Nice! Did you use any resistor with the RAW R/O?

[orb]

Photo's taken had a standard 3 volt CR2. Draws 700Ma @ 3volts.
I have powered with RCR2 for a few minutes draws 1450Ma @ 3.5 volts. there is some volt drop on the RCR2.
I feel Red Raw is plenty bright enough of a normal CR2.
Adjusted focal point on Reflector also to produce nice smooth beam.

[marcspar]

Rob, does this mean I should only run my red raw off standard CR2's, NOT the rechargeables?

I'll be looking for the mailman.......

Thanks,

Marc

[orb]

No, you can run of RCR2. He says Blinded.
Just saying it is plenty bright enough of a CR2.
I can add a resistor if you do not want to push your Red to 1450Ma.

[Haesslich]

Sweeeeeeeeet. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] Thank you again, Rob, for modding that for me - this looks like it'll be the default configuration for my Orb for some time to come, especially with the 3W white module still being available for me to swap this with. I particularly like that last shot with it on the Orb containers.

[img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/takeit.gif[/img] How much for a red resistored RAW pill Rob [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] ?

[marcspar]

As long as I can send it back to you for a led replacement/upgrade in the future (if needed), I'll stick with the un-resistored version!

If I am going for a 'portable sun' it might as well be as bright as possible.

Thanks again.....

Marc

[orb]

Haesslich, No Problem. ThankYou.
Solar, It's not that easy with the Red. The Reflectors need 0.4mm of the small end to get a smooth beam.
So really you need Reflector spacer & Red Raw Pill, Cost £17.
Postage extra £2 for Uk.
Marcspar, No problem with future Requests. I agree Belt out the most you can. Watch the heat after 5 mins.

[SolarFlare]

[img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/paypal.gif[/img] nice one! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]

[SolarFlare]

What flux are the blue emitters Rob?

Oh and have you got any red trits [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/naughty.gif[/img]

[ronson5]

Reflector spacer & Red Raw Pill, Cost £17. how much for shipping to the u.s.? i think i'd like one too.

[SolarFlare]

[img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif[/img] Man that thing is fierce, now I can see enough to type [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crackup.gif[/img] It certainly gets warm fast thats for sure!! Red Raw is pretty apt, thats how my eyes feel now, but I like it [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/buttrock.gif[/img]

Thanks Rob excellent little pill [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/bowdown.gif[/img] just what the doctor ordered!

[Haesslich]

Here's waiting. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

[orb]

£3 Postage or £6 International signed for with insurance.

[Haesslich]

Just got my RB Orb back today - and damn, but it's bright. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] With the new reflector and battery, it lights up practically a whole room by itself, and the fluorescent properties of the RB are useful for locating dust, as well as the UV-reactive strips on money. Very prompt work, too. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

[marcspar]

I received my 2nd order yesterday with the red led and it is incredible to see SO much light come out of something so tiny.

Thanks Rob! I guess I better start saving up for with a blue led....

Marc

[Haesslich]

You should, Marc - it's worth it. Rob was the one who suggested the RB was damned bright, and a better mod than a LuxV, and he was right on both counts. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

[SolarFlare]

The Red RAW is amazin ain't it [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] painfully bright!!

[x-ray]

Hi Rob,

Would it be possible to order one red and one RB Raw (don't need charger just two lights and two batts) ?

Thanks

[Haesslich]

Incidentally, he repolished the Orb I sent him, and apparently redid the etching since it seems a little smoother than when it went in. Very nice work. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] Almost sensual to the touch, as well, with the way it just fits in the hand - a heck of a difference after having carried the aggressive LH knurling or Aleph knurled lights for some time.

[Trashman]

Would be nice if these red drop ins were made available. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

[orb]

They are & will be @ www.theorb.co.uk next week.
In the mean time the Red Led with Reflector etc is £17.
These are for Raw.

[Sky]

I would like to order one red drop in package for the raw. What do I use for a PayPal address? Thanks.................Sky

[orb]

Red/Orange Drop in is £17 with Reflector spacer & Glass.
Also add £6 for insured postage or £3 without.
Paypal to: info@theorb.co.uk
Many Thanks

[dbrad]

And the RoyalBlue? Also £17?
Thanks

[dbrad]

What if I send you one (R/B)? Would you mount it and make it a drop-in?

[orb]

Yes that would be fine.
Cost for mount of your led onto raw pill & postage back is £10.

[Trashman]

17 pounds for the red/orange drop in, reflector, space & glass. The same reflector, spacer and glass that came with the raw, right? Are the drop ins available without the extra items for less cost? (unless the spacer is different(?) and the reflector is also different(?))
