Re: FS:XHP-70&lt;-- Copper P60 modules. 3000+ OTF lumen!

Awesome- keep us posted on the 4000K
I'm going to work an extra day this week to get the PayPal ready haha.
I'm leaning towards a "locked in" 2mode group.
10 or 15% low and DD hi :)

I've got some de-stickied copper tape ready to go!

I almost got my drop-in with a locked 2 mode 10%/100%. I'm glad I didn't... the 100% gets too hot too fast for using more than a few minutes. Seems like 40% gives a nice comfortable level for longer use in a smaller host.

That makes sense. It's like a race car. You don't want to keep a race car in the red too long. It could blow up.

Got my xhp-70 in yesterday and WOW!! This one led is brighter than every other light I own including quads and everything else. Perfect fit and finish and awesome communication throughout! Here's some beam shots (more like night and day!)

And the xhp-70 with 2x 18650

Thanks VOB!! Will definetly be doing more business with you in the near future!!!!
 
Umm, sorry, but I would like to know what a 2s2p is in relation to this module?
I need to buy a whole new world of batteries for VOB's stuff.

Thanks, Jahn
Not sure if im answering ur question but here goes.
2S2P is referring to 2 series and 2 parallel battery setup.
Since the emitter needs at least 2 li-ion batteries in series to light up, the 2 parallel cells will provide the extra juice for longer runtime.
 
Mhgarcia,

Thanks for the beam shots!

This is correct. Psychbeat is using a special type of headlamp that he will be putting this into. No one needs to have a 2s2p, he just wanted to know if that much power was going to kill the module.
 
Hi VOB. I wonder if you can tell me how much current would be pulled from the tail with a P60-XHP70 on max using 2 18350s?
 
Thanks, that's very useful to know. Presumably most of the clicky switches available can handle that.

I managed to collapse a spring but I hadn't bypassed either spring. It was either with extended runs of 18350's or a very short run with 18650's. Not really sure at this point :whistle:
 
Thanks for the feedback seasam.


psychbeat,

I think that if you make sure the module is a tight fit in your head lamp ( maybe some copper tape if needed) that using the 2s2p pack would be fine. The driver and the emitter could handle the roughly 8-10 amps you would see from it, but proper thermal transfer would certainly be a must.

I can also order the 4000K XHP70. Right now the only 4000K I can find is a J4 bin though. I have one more source I can check to see if a higher bin exists, but their website is down right now so I will get back to you.

VoB, I have been enjoying my 4000K MT-G2 a LOT!!! Woow that beam is the best, it's absolutely amazing, smooth and clean, the led itself is so good looking I made it my avatar today! Great looking module too.. Hence, I am tempted to get another module and think that something a little different would be more interesting than getting two of the same..
I am tempted by the XHP-70 in 4000K, while we will wait to hear about a higher bin availability, would you think that you can find a XH-P70 that has a similar tint as the 4000K MTG-2?

Never seen a J4 XHP70 before :nana:, but there is an N4 (which is currently the highest binned XHP70). J4 is an XHP50 bin designation.

I have no idea why Cree comes up with a new flux bin designation for each LED series. Q5, T6, U2, S2, R5, N4, M0, Q0, J4 . . . it's hard to keep them straight.
 
Jmayot, thanks for the pictures.

Your just not scraping hard enough Richard. Once you get to the bottom of the XHP-70 barrel, keep scraping a while longer and you will turn up J4 bin XHP-70s too LOL!




For all who are interested, I am working still on getting some high bin neutrals. I can back order them now, and I sent an email to find out roughly how long it will take to get them.

Rest assured we'll get there men!
 
I received my XHP-70 yesterday. Just like the MT-G2, impeccable workmanship. I took it out last night in a five mega turbo head. Just from memory it is brighter that the MT-G2. The faintest hint of a donut. You really have to be looking for it. Nice throw and HUGH bright spill.

Took them both out tonight in identical C2 hosts with overready copper heads and 2 18350's. The 70 is for sure brighter....(no surprise) ... and hotter. Love the new IU.......it will run at 40% all day and just get user friendly warm. Tons of useful light. 1% was "usable" for walking on the trail. 100% does suck up those little battery's. Perfect beam, full and smooth like the MT-G2.........just more of it!

How about a thrower reflector for the small hosts?? :) :)
 
If you like your beam profile to look like the Windows™ logo, then you'll love an XHP70 in a small smooth and focused reflector.
 
Re: FS: Copper P60 modules. MT-G2 1600+ OTF lumen!

Will there be much of a difference between these two emitters as far as beam qualities when using them at 40%? As in using the light in a confined workspace? If so, what are any differences?

It seems as though the MT-G2 has the superior beam quality so if you're only using the XHP-70 at 40%, this would probably be equivalent to using the MT-G2 at 60% regarding output except that the MT-G2's beam is more flawless.

That's my summing up of the situation. I should let VOB and other users with both chime in though.

That is about right. I would say it depends a whole lot on what your "working" on. If your crawling under houses to install cable wire, then there is not going to be any noticeable difference. I find that when I am actually using these type of things for work, I dont notice much difference at all. Now if your "working" on taking photographs in a studio with it then ya, you probly need all the perfection you can get.


My advice for people is always this. "Get what your actually want". Not sure you say? Then do this. Imagine I said "absolutely you should go with the XHP-70 for max brightness!" When you read those words, are you excited? Or did you feel disappointed, and wish I had said "MT-G2 has waaaay better beam quality"


I hope this helps LOL!
