Note:
Since my test environment is far from optimal, lux readings on my charts cannot be accurate. Actually, in my setup, the light sensor is close to the floor and I found the lux reading could be 10% lower if I cut the reflection from the floor. So please don't compare the lux reading with others (or at least take the above statement into consideration) because the test setup can be very different.

FYI, I once tried putting the flashlight itself on the floor and I saw the lux reading was 40% higher than my normal setup because of the reflection. You can see how the lux reading can vary depending on the setup from this.

Re: Runtime tests of sandwich modules in MiniMag

1xAA on the Madmax Lite if your host permits ...

(hmmm ... guess you would need a mini-mini mag)

arigato!

Re: Runtime tests of sandwich modules in MiniMag

I'm going to get a dummy AA cell to see runtimes with 1AA this weekend...

Anyway, I took a few more measurements of 2AA configurations and put all data to one chart.

For categorized charts, see my Mini Maglite mod page.
 
Runtime tests of Badboy + 5W configurations

I uploaded some runtime charts of Badboy + 5W configurations.
[*]PM6/BB700/V4U runtime chart on my PM6 page.
[*]McLux PR/BB750/X3T runtime chart on my McLux page.
[*]McLux PR/BB777/W4T runtime chart on my SureFire L1 mod page.

I'm using Sanyo cells for most runtime measurements for consistency. However, in these high power applications, SureFire and Panasonic cells will work better than Sanyo.
 
Re: Runtime tests of Badboy + 5W configurations

Looks like great data. Unfortunately I am having trouble sorting out the colors of some of the curves. Would it be possible to number the individual lines?
 
Re: Runtime tests of Badboy + 5W configurations

I added KJ's Flashlight Gallery to my website, so if you get a few extra visitors, that's where they came from. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Re: Runtime tests of Badboy + 5W configurations

Doug,

Are you referring to the MiniMag 2AA sandwiches chart above? I modified the chart a little to indicate which is which more clearly, but I also think it's hard to read this chart. I would suggest checking out charts on my site, which are sorted out by either converter or battery, if you've not looked at them yet.

I am especially interested in this, as I have a Madmax Lite driving a Q3J 1W HD in an Electrolumens FT-3C body. It runs great, but the MM shuts down at 1.6V, nowhere near the 'approximately .8V' spec. listed at the Shoppe. I haven't done a run time test on alkaline cells yet, but a pair of cheap zinc-carbon cells will go for 4 1/2 hours.
 
Re: Runtime tests of sandwich modules in MiniMag

kj,

Mind if I use some of your graphs and data on my site.

I'm doing some sorely needed updates and you have some nice data and graphs. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
 
Re: Runtime tests of sandwich modules in MiniMag

No problem /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

My only concern is the accuracy of the data. If you find anything suspicious, please let me know.

BTW, I compiled links to my runtime charts and put the list to the first post of this thread. Hope this helps.
 
Re: Runtime tests of sandwich modules in MiniMag

Print the runtime graphs. Colors show ok, and great reference to keep.

Re: Runtime tests of sandwich modules in MiniMag

Would you like for me to make this thread "sticky" so that it stays at the top of the forum?
 
Re: Runtime tests of sandwich modules in MiniMag

great info!
great site!
cool lights there! this ROF-1 ... drool ....

EDIT: Roy ... Sticky please! The more runtime-Stickies we have, the better!
 
Re: Runtime tests of sandwich modules in MiniMag

....made it "sticky" anyway.....to much good information to have to hunt for.
 
Re: Runtime tests of sandwich modules in MiniMag

In case of MM-Lite, your graph show that runtime by Nimh-cell is approx. double of the runtime by alkaline-cell.
Is this true ? I don't understand. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
Could you explain the reason? Thanks for great job.
 
Re: Runtime tests of sandwich modules in MiniMag

That's reasonable as far as I see the battery specifications from manufacturers.

Copy/paste the chart into Word and enlarge it until the lines are thick enough to clearly see the colors.
