uncle wong,

Got mine today. I like the Natural L2P. Feels almost like Surefire.

Congrats on your latest pruchase. Welcome to the M6 club . I saw you just bought a 2X18650 battery adapter too....hehehe...busy buying accessories for the new toy.

You can also get the regulated pack for the M6 which will be in production soon, here : PhD-M6. Welcome to the club!

alan,

That PhD-M6 is damn expensive $145. I would have get it if it's in the $50 - $70 range.

Congrats on that too #21

Hey alan, the PhD-M6 is really impressive in its technical abilities, these guys are the bomb! But what I'm puzzled is about the PWM regulation for incandescent bulbs, am I missing something here? Cause I thought the pulse width modulation is bad for the filament?

Oh, there is PWM for incans? Interesting, For some filament, the PWM will cause vibration in it, hence weaken the filament.

but Pseudoblue, its depends on the construction, the house holds incans light bulb uses PWM too, its a sine wave 60 Hz (AC power) , maybe that is the reason its does not last?

Interesting... but I'm not sure That's why modern lights need a balast?

Oh, for florescent or HID light, the ballast is actually to limit the current to flow into the lamp, because once the florescent light fired / heated up, it does not need a lot of current to keep releasing light. More recent light use no ballast, they just control the current by electronic circuit (those energy saving bulb)

they are also called electronic balast? haha

lightjunk you need this triple

solarforce L2P custom triple XP-G P60 module

I'm no electronics or materials science engineer, but I don't think PWM is bad for an incand bulb, since it's just pulsing the filament at relatively high frequencies after it's lit. They're also using soft start with the circuit. The multi-level switches from AW for the M6 also makes use of PWM to drive the bulb at different levels.

Hey Damon , are u photographer ?

I m like everyone else nowadays with a DSLR

I cannot use my Triple XP-G in the L2P. There is no negative contact to the L2P body. Too big. I guess its back to Surefire or FM host. I'm keeping it though just in case someone ask.


I've just read the whole thread and Nova of CPF said "The solarforce bodies have a larger diameter bore inside the head of the light, bigger than the Surefire C/P series do."

The drop in rattles in it too.

What I've read so far is that the if the PWM frequency is high enough, it would keep the filament hot and constant on before it can cool down and shuts off. I guess that's okay? Still can't get a definite answer yet.

Damon is very good in taking photo.

Yeah, every 1 is using DSLR, you can see every way, me on the other hand, using my P&S Panasonic LX3 most of the time, only take out DSLR when needed to.

That's because a DSLR is cheap! At least mine is. Only RM 1100. =D And that huge sensor is awesome.

actually i dont like the pic of the solarforce is good

its not stright , and you can see alot dust

Straighten it la!!

U got PS u can erase the dust lol. Or just wipe it clean haha!

Dun play play guys, Damon is a professional. =D

anybody
(check my new signature)

I will take it. PM me your name/bank/ acc. etc...
