and this one
These are the two KD drivers I have tried to use with a SSC P7 Mag mod .
"Auto-alarm towards high temperature,then switch to low mode automatically"
Here lies the problem , after 30 seconds on high the driver switches to low mode , and then your lucky to get 10 second bursts on high .
It just plain sux , both drivers used suffer from this problem , you can only run low mode for more than 30 seconds , both medium and Hi will switch to low mode after 30 or so seconds .
Now I did try to locate the components that got WARM , not hot , but warm .
Thats right , the driver does not get that hot , I pulled the heatsink out of my mag and ran it with everything hanging out so I could shove my fingers all over the driver to see what was getting hot [ WARM ] .
I even tried to heatsink the parts that warmed up .
Made no difference what so ever :
It would seem these drivers just plain suck ! and I hope some one from KD reads this and hopefully asks for the temp feature to be removed from the driver/s .
Next , the new DX SSC P7 drivers [ just ordered ]
So - Word !
