Re: Has anyone modded a 9v Safe-light with Cree, SSC or Luxeon ?
If I remember correctly the safe-light and palights design are based on using the 5mm [board mounted] LED as the light source and a dedicated driver to run it...upgrading it for brightness you'll have to add a heatsink to prevent the LED from cooking itself, and to mod it with something that uses greater current draw will have to re-spec the driver components
that kinda misses the point of having ad infinitum runtime for survival or whatever the light was intended to do
but it sounds cool though
