Anywhere to get 16m round PCB nichia 219?

Hi guys,

got any idea where to get those online?

i would love to reflow them myself but shipping to singapore isn't very fast and isn't cheap.

too little money left to experiment.


thanks!

the nichia 219 can use any PCB that are made for cree XP-E or XP-G

hope that makes search easier.

i don't have the solder paste and heatgun/oven required for reflow soldering.

i am hoping to find them already soldered to the round 16mm PCB.

spending at least 30USD just to reflow solder something for 1 time is way too much spending.

If that's the case Illumination Supply has 16mm XP-G MCPCB.

i tried to reflow solder with my soldering iron on max at the bottom of the mcpcb.
but failed miserably

was hoping not having to burn another led.

I tried to buy 219s on this board but Craig doesn't sell them mounted, I want three of these as well, I want to mod my Peak First Responder.
Any experienced member willing to do the job

i want 2 of those. (no money for 3, students are really really poor)

could craig offer a reflow soldering service for a small price? i don't mind adding a dollar each to get them reflow soldered.

dang!

now we shall wait for a member of CPF to help us out.

or a small fortune dropping from the sky that enables me to buy a heat gun.

I've done reflow soldering with a electrical skillet before so if you have one of those at home, it might be worth a try. Cover the inside with foil if you still plan on using it for food.
I was able to get solder paste (senior project money), but if you don't maybe you can use small bits of chopped up solder with some rosin flux? Make sure there isn't too much solder to prevent solder bridges.

Norm,
chesterqw,

I got the equipment and have done this many times.

I would be happy to do a few for $1 each. Of course you guys buy the LED's, the boards (or have them ship to me directly), and of course you guys pay shipping to me and return back to you (I live in Texas). Contact me by email directly if interested.
