3-Stage PD? Arc 6 w/PD Driver?

[:)>]

Is there any way to use a driver like the GDuP with a Kilroy? I am pretty sure that the 2 stage activation via the PD would go away but this might be a nice option.

Also, is the board in the Arc 6 the same size as the board in the PD's? If I wanted to switch the boards out, is there any reason why this wouldn't work?

I did a prototype LunaSol early in the year with a GDuP that drove the Cree. It was the "daughter" board while the BBM was still the mother board driving the Nichia LED's. The GDuP will not fit in a PD light as it is completely different in size and configuration than the "x2" converters.

The Arc 6 driver won't fit in a PD without significant modification to the head to allow room for its added height. The integral bulkhead in the Arc 6 is milled out to allow room for the inductor. I would imagine that one could modify a MCPCB to give room for the inductor but I am not familiar with the geometry anymore.

I have been fighting a headache all day and trying to answer this thread has not helped! :nana:

Everyone is always so much smarter than me... I was just feeling special that Don took the time to fight through the headache and provide me with such a thoughtful answer:kiss::p

Nah, youre purdy smart, for a FL boy. :cool:

Don is a fine man, he would take on any headache to answer a CPFer's question. :twothumbs

Don is more than a man... he is a legend... a way of life. Maybe he will come over to Florida early next year for the Shot Show.

We can only hope. If he does come to SHOT, the first 3 rounds are on me. :D

Of course, if you were to trim the ancillary conducting extrapolator while maintaining the appropriate clearance for the kilroy and its attending facilitator then you may make it work. The clearances are key, and you would have to assure clearances to 1 micron to assure the copper capacitance plug would not interfere in any way with the electrical path of the nickel-cadmium anode. Forget that step and- well, BANG. Ouch.

For those electrons that manage to fall out of the induction path, you could use a copper-based accumulator (see Wayne's shoppe). While this in no way helps offset the loss of power to the emitter, it does allow you to assure that no stray electrons are lost. The accumulator will then maintain a low level of power to the EEPROM.

Yeah.

Where did you learn all that smart stuff?

Questions?...Questions?... I might have questions if I understood anything you wrote. I know how to turn my lights on and off and change the battery. Aw crap my head hurts too now! You have wounded me sir! :twak:

A GDuP in a PD-S should be possible but the Kilroy would not be needed. I put a Flupic in a HD45 that had an unrepairable board. The traces by the kilroy were damged so I removed all the components off the Wiz2x2 board & used it as a contact board. The same could be done using the GDuP. Although the standard Flupic has way too many modes than I prefer this HD45 was pretty cool.
