yep bart, it's under construction :{
<font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">I have no idea... I ordered the LXHL-PH01 without the "br". The web page shows it for $8.85 but when I called, they told me it was only $7.70 (I only bought 2 of this part number)Originally posted by Rothrandir:
what does the -br stand for at the end of the part number? it is on the red/orange, the price differences is about 5 dollars.
<font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">I used a somewhat complex heatsink on my R/O emitter because I initially attempted to test if the R/O die slug was electrically isolated. BEWARE the R/O die slug is NOT isolated, it is POSITIVE!!! What this means is that you will have to mount the emitter on a heatsink that does NOT route negative current.Originally posted by Ben H:
Slick, Lamba, ?
How did you heatsink the R/O emitter? I haven't worked with the emitters before just the stars and the star/O's. I plan on putting the emitter in a brinkmann 2AA light.
<font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">Lumiled's application briefs merely mention that the die slug "IS NOT ELECTRICALLY ISOLATED" for ALL Luxeon emitters.. They don't give any other details. My mention that whites and cyans work OK with the slug touching negative is for clarification and to highlight the fact that this WILL NOT work with the Red/Orange.Originally posted by Rothrandir:
the bottom slug is positive?!??!?! why on earth would they do that? if anything, it should be negative...does anyone know?
<font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">Ben - I'm looking into having a run of heatsinks made. They will be copper, 1/8 in thick and fit perfectly into a Brinkmann 3AA or 2AA flashlight. I will post details in a new thread.Originally posted by Ben H:
Slick, Thanks for the reply. Anybody got a simple heatsink for a ls Red/Orange emitter and a brinkmann 2AA light?
