Hi folks,
I am getting help from a buddy to build me non-pedestal heatsinks. It looks all that is available is raised on a pedestal. I will make 3 heatsinks; copper, aluminum, and brass. I will run the SST-90 direct drive with stock 2D Mag Switch. Powered by 3 NiMH Tenergy C cells or 4 SubC NiMH cells. Then I can see which heatsink material works best. Oh, and 24gauge wire will be used.
I wanted to purchase one of the SST-90 sold at 4sevens, but it doesn't have a star. If I will only use this direct drive; do I still need the SSR-90???
My goal is to get 1800 OTF lumens and still have 1500 OTF at 3~5 minutes So, far not even the mighty SSR90 from Olight can do this.
Thanks,
bigC
