Re: " 6k " A Hybrid Flashlight/Searchlight 6k-10K Lumens with a CSM-360 "Luminus" Led

Bought pretty much everything that Sabrewolf has put out in last ~18 months.... they get wilder all the time. I hate to say it but 6,000 lumens :faint: :faint: :faint: is too much for me!

Make them stackable and snap together if they are thin enough.

Ohh, I like that. Maybe with some kind of spacers between for better airflow.

:sssh:

Build it and they will come :)

May I suggest a few more strategically positioned tripod threads so that you can furnish adapters so that people can attach this to bikes and other applications?

With a standard thread like that, people can pretty much make their own stuff and plenty of things exist on the market already..
(Just an example and please note that there are 1600+ items just on this site http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/search?Ntt=clamp&N=0&Ns=p_PRICE_2|0&pn=22)

Lots of mounting options will be available :)
Inlcuding a Police-Style Windshield mount

According to Rob, the prototype is about to proceed. This is a complicated undertaking, so some pre-planning has taken place as well as brainstorming with another 2 respected modders here. However, Rob has a backlog of custom lights to clear, so the 6K isn't going as fast as he has hoped. :thinking:

good to hear someone's still working on it! this project just sounds too great to be forgotten...
 
Re: " 6k " A Hybrid Flashlight/Searchlight 6k-10K Lumens with a CSM-360 "Luminus" Led

Yes folks, This project is still underway.
But it is still in the planning stages at the moment :whistle:

i almost for got about this.
 
Re: " 6k " A Hybrid Flashlight/Searchlight 6k-10K Lumens with a CSM-360 "Luminus" Led

Dang, that's quite the light... Might be interested in one if it ever gets off the ground. I'm going to keep my eye on this one, especially the 6K. :D
 
Re: " 6k " A Hybrid Flashlight/Searchlight 6k-10K Lumens with a CSM-360 "Luminus" Led

I wish i had an update for ya folks :(
Working on other projects still (taglights)
And still working on the design too :)

Any news?:whistle:
 
Please make this flashlight!

I hope you make this some day. Just some thoughts:
  • A active cooling system would provide more light output, by keeping the diodes cooler. Just use a CPU style heat sink and fan! It would only need to consume about 4 watts. I would make a vertical channel behind the leds with fins and a fan blowing up from the bottom. like this?

    The * is the fan blowing air up, dashes represent many thin fins coming off the back of the led mounting plate.
  • Maybe add a voltage readout or power analyser that shows mAh used or something like that
  • Protection circuit and charging circuit would be interesting, you could use a large single pack that's easy to swap out
  • I think the single csm-360 LED at 6k lumens might be more than enough for most people ;)
 
Re: Please make this flashlight!

Really too bad this project didn't continue. I was interested way back when it was still going and was interested to see the finished product :sigh:
