Feeler ---- AlanB softstart incan regulator

[id30209]

Gents, few words exchanged with Alan and he would be happy if i can collect all of your orders for him to review how to proceed. Some parts are missing and can be obtained but it will change final price as it's mentioned also in OP.
Will be updated promptly.

Regarding your desires please advise:
regulator type (standard or multilevel)
levels in percentage for multilvl (3 levels)
softstart (fast, med, slow)
ramping (fast, slow)
Temp warning (50,60,70,80,90 deg Celsius)
which bulb would you use
bulb Vmax
battery chemistry
number of cells
low batt warning voltage

Please send me PM with data filled as mentioned above.

EDIT: Let's try another option, PM's sent to everybody on the list

Thank you - now the tough part - need to make decisions on configuration.

Hi id30209,

Thank you for sending me the PM. I am actually going to have to rescind my interest expressed in the feeler. I am very sorry about that

 

[fivemega]

regulator type multilevel
levels in percentage for multilvl (3 levels) 60%, 80$, 100%
ramping from 10 volts to 15.5 volts (fast, slow)
Temp warning (50,60,70,80,90 deg Celsius) EDIT: 70C is OK.
which bulb would you use: OSRAM 64623
bulb Vmax 15.5 Volt
battery chemistry IMR
number of cells 8 serial 18650
low batt warning voltage: 22 Volts

Please note:
If possible starting voltage from 10 volt then ramp up to 15.5
There is no point start from zero.
So after switched on, bulb will get 10 volts then from there ramp up to 15.5 volt.
Any voltage from zero to 10 volt is useless and won't do any good to bulb.

Can anyone tell what is the basic socket and what advantage comes with KYU?

Can anyone tell what is the basic socket and what advantage comes with KYU?

Basic socket is Osram capable up to 50-60w maybe more. If you want to use 64623 or similar than KIU is highly recomended.

Here's a brief look on AlanB config file opened in Python 2.6.1. As you can ser unlike Jimmy's PhD this one uses graphical engine so configuration you like is only in 2 mouse clicks. I can send you files over email so you can try it your self. I'll post my setup soon

[id30209]

Here are setups for 64623, 64657 and FM1909 bulbs.
I hope it will help you guys who are still interested.

FM please give it a look if it's ok, temp warning is avail only up to 70deg or no regulation at all.

70C is OK.

Gents, last call. In few days i have to wrap up all orders.

Hello!

possibly interested for two regulators with Kiu socket...just let me know via PM for details!

P.S. anyone know if Carley lamps company still exist? I need high temp reflector for incan!

Thanks.

Hey id30209,

I apologize for my tardiness. I've been undertaking a big move. I'll get you an order in ASAP!!

 

[Crumbly]

Just saw this thread is it too late to order 1 regulator?

Hi Crumbly,
It's still not to late cause it's moving slow due to other priorities. PM incoming.

Gentlemen i would advise to build your self with patience. There are no info WHEN it'll be done but when the time comes i'll notify you here. Quiting due to reason "i want it now" it's not nice toward Alan since this isn't his main project but side work when time allows.

 

[Crumbly]

Great, actually I am thinking maybe 2 regulators and 1 programmer.

 

[KuanR]

Put me down for 1, I have some incan parts left to build a Maglite that I abandoned due to no regulator availability

 

[id30209]

Ok, i'll update list shortly

 

[HarryN]

Hi, sorry to do this, but I have too many projects going right now to build up a hobby incan light.

Please give my slot to someone else.

I am sure that I will regret this when I want to build up a 24 volt based light.

Take care,

HarryN
