Mag 2D triple SST-90 @ 6000 lumens, easy to build

Hello,

just want to share some pics about a new build with you. My intention was to

make a triple SST-90 and keep it as simple as possible for low budget and

being easy to build cause I did no longer want to take one of my more

cost intensive lights for my nightly dog walking, so I put the following

parts together: a Mag 2D, 3x SST-90 (W65S-GN100 binning), 3x AW IMR 26500,

custom made heatsink, mag stock switch, DX triple reflector for hopefully good

throw (inspired by a nice triple SST-50 built from ma_sha1) 20ga teflon wire:







…round piece of metal from ebay (costs at about 1$) as a heatsink, lots of glue

(forgot to clean after I pressed the emitters to the plate over night) switch:







…all together in the Mag head- I rasped the reflector on the upside only for

about 3mm down, just that much so that I could fix the bezel to the head,

it does not screw down completely:

…neighbourhood at night, controlshot:

Thank you for watching best regards from Frankfurt,

hi big work you done
whats the burntime and the degree of the light

the heatsink might be a tad undersized for 3 SSTs though oo:

i'm sure he'll figure that out soon enough, the hard way

He's had it for eleven months, so probably knows by now, one way or the other..... Old thread been bumped to the top.

...resources of the heatsinking for this light had been really "small"- all the lights I built are not heavily glued or fixed that much, that you could not use the parts to go on with modifying- but this light, after it fell on the floor for one time, started to go blue after about 40 seconds- and I could not find anything wrong after it fell down- so I screwed the small heatsinking to the mag-head, then it worked (before no glue, no screws, only pressed to heatsink by screwing down mag bezel..). Meanwhile I do not own this light any more- but it seems to work so far...

best regards,
steffen

I wish they would not have dumped them....
