HDS Systems #23

[ironhorse]

You should know better than to put out there that the new ones are better now. These lunatics are going to think that their "old" lights aren't good enough now.

[gravelrash]

My old lights aren't good enough now.

[whill44]

So when's the recall?

[PoliceScannerMan]

Shipping notice woohoo! Samsung rotary otw.

[Hogokansatsukan]

Actually, Henry has been doing this kind of thing from the beginning of HDS.
The only difference now is that I tell you about it.
Think about it... there are 22 versions of the software alone... there are at least that number of unknown (to the end user) upgrades and changes in the physical power supply and tail electronics.

@Hogo
Are there now more concrete shipping estimations for BeCu and Stainless?

Had always assumed this but it's good to hear every once in a while. A company should always be moving forward to make the product more efficient, robust and or cost effective. I've always believed 10 small improvements are worth more than one big change. Keep up the good work guys.

PSM, How many weeks from ordering to shipping?

[Acid87]

Been away for 6 years. Find my High CRI HDS light and tactical HDS. Login to CPF to find the love is still here for the lights. Amazing.

3 Henry weeks

[adamlau]

Aha...But with the upgraded internals, or not ?

[Hogokansatsukan]

That is about right! LOL! I calibrated your light and saw the order date on the invoice.

Aha...But with the upgraded internals, or not ?

Yes, he is getting the upgraded internals.

Concrete. No. Every time I think they are about ready, something comes and bites me in the rear.
I will say this: We now have EVERYTHING to put them together so baring Henry or I getting hit by a bus, having a stroke, or a case of the Wuhan Flu, it shouldn't be long now.

Thanks for the update, good to hear all pieces are there. I understand that there is no better planning currently.

Also my location is in lockdown.... Enhances the lockdown... The Corona mutants are coming .... and at the end Purple Tentacle tooks over the world...

Here's an interesting grip ring for an HDS. I don't know what the guy is saying, but it was cool watching him make it.

The thing may be comfortable to hold, but there is a high probability of losing a finger. I almost broke my finger (just dislocation) when I used a knife with a similar ring.

Working on this project for what seems like too long at this point. Many bumps in the road, I think I’ve finally hit my final bump in the road. I don’t think I can do it anymore. I have so much time and money into this project, for really no reason, I was just curious if it could be done.

And in the final stretch, dead LED! 🤬

Great job! Does the diode appear dead due to physical damage?

[id30209]

Great job Stoneking!
YOu can always replace emitters on that board.

I would prefer that, because then I could explain it. But no, no damage that I can see. It worked for about 2 seconds and then died.

PM sent, I don’t want to excessively sidetrack this forum.

We are finally getting caught up after moving vendors. Not all are out as we are also working on getting the BeCu wrapped up in order to finally get them out.

... working on getting the BeCu wrapped up in order to finally get them out.

Pictures required or it isn't really happening!

Anyone else have an 18350 or 18500 body ordered who is excited about getting theirs? I’m counting the months....

At first I am getting exited on getting all my BeCu and Stainless Steel Lights. After that I will warm up to get exited about my 18350 and 18500 tubes.
