Sorry to reply to an old thread, but where did you get a reflector that large?

Reflector =DX 47996
Bezel = DX 4213
Body = Only available in my country

Thanks.

Would you say the reflector's of good quality? It looks a bit worse than 66mm lens in the shot above, but maybe a bit better in that it has some flood.

Someone also mentioned to you(?) built a version w/ the 75mm aspheric at DX, but I can't find the thread. Maybe you remember where you put it. I was thinking of sticking mine in a 3" (76mm) pvc pipe with an emitter stuck on a round PC heatsink and calling it a day. Sorry, much more lazy than you.

Thats a proven formula, the 75mm aspheric is big fun.
With the Cree XRE-R2 @ 1,8A you get easily 120Kcd.
With 2,1A end up I got up to 170Kcd. But depends on heatsinking, in your light maybe 130-140Kcd.

The XM-L has a bigger die, so depending on current you run the Led 120Kcd sounds feasable.
Wort the effort compared to 82Kcd I would think .

But nice builds, great beamshots, like your work.

Before I forget (mentioned before): Do not forget to measure your light at longer distances then 3m. At least 10 times the diameter, so 7 or even better 10meters should give more accurate readings!!

Despite the smaller diameter, The DX 66mm lens performs just as good as the 75mm lens if not better,
In the mean time, allowing a more compact build. In the end, I reached 220,000 lux @ 1 meter with R2/2.1 Amp using the 66mm lens. I was not able to change the title but added an update in the last post:

The 75mm has a bigger aperture, resulting in clearly more surface area -> throw.
The viewingangle for the Led is bigger also, so resulting in more lumens also.

Notes from my experiments:
Thorlabs 75mm - Clear aperture specs 67; experienced 50mm
Edmunds 75mm - Clear aperture specs 71mm; experienced 40mm
Ebay67/DX66mm - Clear aperture 60mm; experienced 46mm


75mm DX aspheric:
Measured:
Diameter 77,25mm
Diameter bulb 74mm
Thickness rim 5.5mm
Total thickness 30mm
Backfocal length 44.5mm to top of dome using Cree XRE-R2.

Edit: Trustfire X6 might fit a lens with some work:
Cigarman The lense glass measured to 73.9mm measured the inner bezzel the largest it will accept is 74.1mm

So,
Are these lights for sale somewhere?
