Battery for CSM-360 / CMB-360

lasersandlights · Apr 6, 2010

I plan on making a flashlight with the Phatlight CSM-360 or CMB-360.
Could anyone let me know which one is better and if there is a cheap place to buy these?
Also, what is the best battery setup, 5 x imr26550?

Another thing? What would the optimal closest commercially available reflector be for this LED?

Thanks guys!

im useing 1 18650 on a sst 90 direct drive its pushing 3.14 at max 1000-1200 lumen (ultrafire 3000ma) im gessing two in paralle shoud get you less then 6amps ,use a good brass heat sink. some 18650 have a 3amp circit blit in...him? this video is a sst 50 the sst 90 video not ready.

I think 3 18650 in sereys 4.2x3 = 13.6 should push 4-5 amps could use 3000ma batterys for a good run time and more amp (mabe 5)max for csm-360 w is 6.3 amps max voltage 14.1

i think your best bet would be 32650 x 3

That is not a good idea. Ultrafire 3000mAh cells have high internal resistance and are not made for high current draws!
