Can anyone confirm the current draw for the new models with SSC leds?
Can anyone confirm the current draw for the new models with SSC leds?
Am I the only one that thinks the current draw is way too high here? You really don't get alot more lumens when you go over 30ma/led. But you do cut their life span enormously and cause failures. Am I missing something?
I know. But, at 6V/280ma, that's still alot of current to the leds. I'm questioning if this isn't the reason users report failures for this light. If you used it for burns of only a few minutes here and there, it would be fine. If you ran it hours at a time, I think high current would be an issue.
Just would like to know if I am missing something. The greater brightness would be from better leds.
How can I tell that I am buying the latest version? There are multiple versions on Amazon. Is there a model number for the current latest version please?
Dual mode is dual brightness correct?
I looked up the Inova X5 UV official website and model they sell is SKU: X5DMB-HUVT
Also one thing I'm concerned is do I need to wear eye protection when using it to check banknotes etc?
Thanks for the info.
Will 18650 batteries work with Inova X5s?
