What is the difference between a star and an emitter? How can I tell them apart? I have an l1t, q3 and a dorcy super 1 watt 1 cr123.

An emitter is just, well, the emitter, but a star has a star-shaped heatsink on which the emitter is mounted.

Can you take the emitter off the star shaped heat sink? I see sales for WWOS or TYOJ stars and was wondering if you could actually take them off and just use the emitter.


Thanks
