Wayne,

I know you are probably busy, but I was wondering if your could respond to my PM or email concerning the Badboy I am having trouble with. Even if you could let me know your looking into it and will get back to me later would be fine.

Hello,

I may have a problem with one of my converters. It is the BB777:

1 x Badboy Blank (no sense resistor) Step Up Converter Bd-Rev 4
- Resistor2: .18
- Resistor1: 0.10
- Solder resistors on: Value

It is being used to drive a single WW0T LuxV using a modamag adapter with 4xAA NiMH 4.8Vnom (5.68V hot off the charger no load) on an o-sink in a cutdown 1D Mag. I haven't measured LED current just yet (ran out of free time), but the board is only pulling .12A from the batteries. I tried using 4 Battery Station lithium AA cells (6.4V no load) with the same results. I tried switching from the GND connection to the LED- connection with the same results. The sense resistors seem to be correct at 0.10/0.18 using my magnifying glass. All of the other converters have worked as they should.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.


:)

Not a problem. Would you like me to ship the one I have back?

Thanks!
