wquiles, I have one more question, If I use the H6CC driver and tell him to set it to 3Amps, Will all 3 leds get 3 Amps, Or 1 Amp per Led? That part is confusing.
"Codiak" I was thinking of that too, but like I said, Im new to this and didnt want to sound dumb. But, again, I cant seem to find a driver for these specs either. 12v input, 10v 8A output. Is there someone on CPF that could make this for me?
Thanks for the input guys. Im still in the learning process. I am wanting to build an off road light for my truck, ten x-ml's running at 2.8-3 amps each. I'm thinking about what BLASTERMAN said about running ten buck drivers, but I cant seem to find any that fit my specs. 12v input, 3.3v 2.8A...
Ok, i am wanting to power ten x-ml's in series. Can you help me choose a power supply? It needs a 12v input, and 28-30 amp output. What would the output voltage need to be? :)Thanks
Because of the magnified reflector, this light has alot of throw. It has usable light out around 400 yards ( or 1200 feet). ive read that the xm-l has more of a floody beam than the xr-e. Something like 125 degree vs xre having like 90 degree. How much throw might I loose?
I figured I was missing something, there is no way to change my foward current without changing drvers, right? I see how te xml is a better emitter now, the only problem is I cant change the driver as it it made into the switch. Kind of makes it pointless to change emitters. Am I correct that...
I did some more digging, and found the the cree xr-e that came in my light is rated at 107 lumens @ 350ma. So, I guess if my driver is driving @ 700ma, that would go along with SL's 200 lumen claim. You are recommending the xm-l. Its only rated at 280 lumens @ 700ma. I just dont see were 80...
I think im starting to undrstand this. My battery pack says 1.8Ah, and my voltage from the driver to the led is 3.2v. My lights run time is a little over 2 hours. Would I be correct to say that my foward current is 700ma?
I can take some tonight, Its kinda embarrassing how I screwed it up but oh well. I screwed the reflector of my other streamlight onto it to see what the beam would look like, and the hole wasnt big enough and I basically crushed the dome ontop of the led. Then I was like oh well I f*d it up this...
Ive narrowed it down to either Cree MC-E or Seoul P7. I think the Cree would be better, because I want to use the driver that came in the light powering the Cree XR-E. I will be ordering my new led in a couple of days, which one do you guys reccomend me trying?
