Sold/Expired Who is selling a TYOJ Luxeon III emitter?

I disassembled an L1 bezel which had a non-functioning Luxeon III emitter. I need to buy a replacement emitter, with my preference being the TYOJ bin code. Is there anybody out there in Luxeonland, selling such an animal?

Is anybody out there? I still need a TYOJ Luxeon III emitter....

ask Don, aka Mcgizmo ?

Luxlover, I've got some SY0J and some TV0J if you're interested. I know they're not exactly what you asked for, but I've been modding with these and they work nicely. Also have some Q2H emitters that ought to generate a really nice, white beam in an L1. A couple other goodies as well. PM me if interested, and hope it helps! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Thank you gtwace. Since I recently bought a PR-T-DB917 bezel from him, and it has a TYOJ Luxeon III in it, I thought of asking him first. However, he told me that they are all dedicated to his new Aleph lights. I wish him good luck, in the common acceptance of his Aleph Series lights!

Thank you for the reply to my post. I would very much like to stick with the TYOJ as my choice for the Luxeon III emitter I would like to install in my skeleton L1 bezel. I cannot see any bin code being better than this, based on the output of the new PR-T-DB917 bezel I bought from Don using this emitter. It is flawless as far as my eyes can see!

In addition to the TYOJ, if someone knows of a TWOJ emitter, even though it is very rare, please let me know. I would buy that too.

Balrog has some TWOJ.
Not sure if he wants to part with any of them.
An offer couldn't hurt. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/icon3.gif

There are apparently a few TWOH emitters floating around here and there too.

I guess you are referring to these TW0Js. I'll sell you the two on the right if you wish.

If you read the full post you can see that two replacements are on the way, but they have a special home to go to so they are not for sale.

balrog, are those 2 still lights up? if they are and you don't want them, i will take them (for a price, of course)

He was joking.
Those "lowdomes" are about as useful as roadkill at this point. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/icon15.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crackup.gif

Lol 3rd_shift, actually, if the phospor is still intact on the lux die, it still perform at least as good as any common Lux3. So, if they are still intact, i will take them, else, roadkill they are /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/yellowlaugh.gif

I tried removing the crushed dome from one of them and that seemed to kill it. The other one works and still emits plenty of light. However, I am going to keep this one as a test unit. That frees up another one for me.

I got a good laugh out of this too. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
It's not everyday I see offers for leds that look like 18 wheelered Armadillos. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eeew.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/yellowlaugh.gif

I see that TYOJs are hard to come by. I have had a few members offering me TX1J and TVOJ emitters. Any comments on their tints?

If you are going to drive them above 700ma, the tint should be negligible unless you're the type who likes to compare lights side by side on a white wall.

Isn't that what all flashaholics do in their spare time? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Billson,

My current plan is to build the bezel with a reflector and no regulation, because I plan to use it on the L1 body. This allows me to use it on my E1e body in direct drive. If I build it with a regulator such as Kiessling's recommended BB500, then it will only be useful in the E1e, and not the L1 which has a regulator board in the body.

This is how I plan on determining an emitter's tint. Shine the light on a white wall and look for tint. If I don't see any, then there isn't any. The only bezel I have with a tint is the stock L1 bezel. It is slightly purple, which SF says is indicative of all of their Luxeon I emitters.

OK yous guyses. So you want to play hard to get? I will settle for a pair of TXOJs, if you are going to hold back on the TYOJs.

The X1 and XO color bins are good. I wouldn't take a "V" though. Some I've seen were on the greenish side.
