Re: XPG modules plus SST-50 -90 & MCE/P7 P60 dropin Modules for Sf product (part 4)
Hi Dave,
As I figure out which drop-in(s) to purchase, I've spent some time reading the Part 3 and Part 4 threads and frankly, there are many questions that you have answered. Far to many to remember/recall.
So, perhaps a suggestion. Would it be possible to have some details for each drop-in on the first post? Some of the questions that will be helpful to know about each drop in are:
- Runtime (Either calculated or based on some reference battery - such as AW 16340 or 18650. Seems like many members have AW batteries. Further, I realize that there are other variables which but some idea of runtime would be helpful)
- Lumens (I realize that this may vary based on voltage, current, unknown host, lens type, etc. However, it would be helpful to have some reference. Even if other members have done some testing, it would be great to perhaps post that information.)
- Beam Characteristic (Is it floody, tight beam, throwy, etc.)
- Amp draw (this may vary but the different configuration/board but I assume that you can provide a range?)
I'm sure there are other details/attributes that other members have asked but for someone like me, a novice learning more and more and spending way too much money
, having some information about the drop-in helps with the decision. For example, I have a R2 light (not sure if it's XPG or XRE, it's a Nitecore D10) and as I progress to drop-ins, I don't know the differences between a XP-G and the Osram Diamond/Golden Dragon leds. I'm sure there is information somewhere on this site about the differences. However, to have some information for each of your drop-ins under each entry would help with the purchasing decision
. Or at least be better informed.
Apology for a selfish suggestion as I suppose I could search but that will take a quite a bit of time. Also, I'm sure you receive repeated questions and this may actually save you time :thumbsup:.
At any rate, just a suggestion for your consideration.
Thanks for listening (reading)
