Hello,
I decided to build a flashlight with the new Cree MT-G2 emitter and share some first impressions with you:
comparison, left to right:
Cree MT-G2 – SST-90 (dedomed) – XM-L T6
all parts: OEM 2x 26650 flashlight host, driver KLICK and MT-G2 emitter:
MT-G2 emitter glued to pill:
MT-G2 emitter back in flashlight host:
MT-G2 emitter placed in reflector:
MT-G2 flashlight @ 3,1A , about 2000 lumens, beamshot at white wall 3m away:
UPDATE with beamshots:
..some beamshots from tonight, I have a new cam, a Nokia 808 smartphone, only
3 pics taken- all at camera setting "automatic" without flash:
first the view out to my neighbourhood at night:
next is my this time highly best "walk with my dog" light "Guolin GL-K223" modified for
single 18650 IMR and 3-mode 5A driver, and XM-L U2 1A emitter (4,1A at tailcap)
mega best throw budget flashlight:
and now the MT-G2, please make up your own mind:
...best regards from frankfurt,
Steffen
