Re: WANTED, NICE LUX III emitter
I just did 2 of my Arc LSH's and used Seoul USVOH LEDs, as I like the slight warmth over a USWOH that most prefer. IIRC, the LSH board already had some sort of pad under the LED, I just put a drop of thermal compound down and plopped the LED on. If you see bare aluminum in the cutout there, what I do is use a paper hole punch and cut out an insulating disc from transistor heatsink mounting mica sheet. Otherwise, the Seoul is an exact fit for the Luxeons, although the position of the die results in slightly different beams with the same optics in the same position. I went with the Khatod 17mm reflectors, and love the results. The LED board screws down onto the reflector and helps hold the LED down for heat transfer, although I feel less heat than it ever had with Luxeons. I feel its a non-issue at normal currents like the Arc 350mA.
Photon Fanatic supplied my Seouls and Khatods.
