Your videos has been invaluable to those who DIY. Could you make a video on different type of drivers and why you would use one vs the other? I interpret the linear drivers as fet drivers which means the only thin that regulates power are the stacked fets and non programmable? A video of all these types of drivers would be amazing.
Going to be doing this in about a week when my package arrives. Wad wondering. Does it matter which 7135 chips we do this on? As in my driver has 8 already. I can just add 2 onto 2 random 7135s and it'll be fine right? (Aside from battery fitment of course)
Can I run a pair of T6 LEDs from them and would it be more efficient than a single LED? My driver has 8 extra chips on it. Good tip on the middle pin I've kept mine intact. I have half a dozen of these. How would I heat sink a 16mm driver?
Hello Matt. I would like to ask for your opinion and help Mr. Matt.I have a torchlight, but the battery spring from the drive has come off or is disconnected.My question is, if I want to reattach the battery spring to the drive back to the original, do I need equipment such as solder paste and solder? I really appreciate your help.
Thank you, for the instructional video. TerraL** cost for the same result about $64 Plus for their unit. Now it’s possible, to use this chip board and obtain the same result; at a fraction of the cost of above! Thanks once again for your hard work.
Hello, I am looking for a p60 build tutorial that I believe you did and I can't find it anywhere? Could you help me locate the video? Thank you for all you do, and your addition with LuxWad is amazing 👏.
Hi, I had a problem with my diving flashlight.. the flashlight suddenly dimming and shut down after few minutes. It's not flooded but I saw some sparks when I closed the end part of the flashlight after putting the batteries before I used the flashlight.. I changed batteries but still the flashlight won't turn on. I opened the flashlight to see if there's a visual damage to the driver.. there is no damage. I wonder if the driver was busted or the LED? How do I repair my flashlight? Thanks
Hey Matt, Could you possibly show us how to boost the acebeam w30. I want to try it on my own but I don't know where to start. Also maybe even show us if a RLT collar would work because theoretically there is no reason it couldn't. I know RLT collars are nowhere to be found but I figured Matt Smith would have at least one. Love the your vids btw
acebeam w30 - laser pumped flashlight. Lasers, unlike LEDs, do not particularly like overcurrent. I would not risk it on such an expensive and complex device. Moreover, you have more chances to break it than to modernize
but if you try and get the result - share the video, it would be interesting. How to see the acebeam w30 inside. Although I still do not recommend you to do this
Witam mam pytanie. Posiadam latarkę astrolux ft03s. Rozebrałem ją wyjąłem sterownik bo chciałem zobaczyć jak to wszystko po złożeniu z powrotem okazało się że latarka nie świeci. Rozebrałem ją ponownie myśląc że coś się rozłączyło. Wszystko jest na a latarka nie działa. Jedynie w trybie ładowania świeci. Czy mogę uszkodzić jakość sterownik zrobić palcami zwarci? Jak tak to jaki kupić sterownik by pasował do latarki.
When I remove them from the board I splash the whole chip with liquid flux. Get the tail piece hot and then very quickly jump to holding my soldering iron across all 3 of the front pins. When I solder more chips onto the exsisting ones I bend all 3 legs downward and solder the tail pieces together. Then I solder the two outer legs. You don't need to solder the center one because its electrically the same as the tail piece. If you want to give yourself some extra space you can break off the center of those three legs by bending it up and down. This helps keep accidental bridges from occurring on the tiny pins when you solder.
This driver can have strobe memorized in some groups and also have it start as the default in others. asflashlights.com/-diy-parts/75-10-amp-capable-17mm-led-driver.html
I have a rechargable bike light off ali using 3xl2 chips. I was hoping to increase the driver current but dont understand the circuit, theres a 8 legged chip which is unmarked with a ao7t connected to it, would stacking on this increase current? www.aosmd.com/pdfs/datasheet/ao3400.pdf
yeah all the diy videos are from 2017 or older. people don't do diy stuff like this nowadays. very useful information
For real i miss him doing this channel
Oooooh the old stack, excellent results, I have my convoy's c8 for more than 1 year and they are still working, with 12 chips, greetings matt!

Your videos are awesome!
Is thier not higher mah ones instead of stacking them up great vid again enjoyed the soldering I love modding electronics
Im a newby on LED. It would be good if you could explain how you were able to switch from low, medium and high power.
I would also like to know. It is not explained anywhere.
Can you show some examples of how much more output this can give with a cheap ebay flashlight or sum?
Does it harm the led if more current is going into the LED?
The links are no longer working !
.....SO COOL, MANY THX FOR YOUR POWER INPUT EVERY TIME :))

hey man, love the music on this. ever think about using a traditional mexican song. because...obviously

Great video Matt. Good info too. Thanks brother. :)
Very nice dude!👍👍👍👍
Is the qlite programmable where you can decrease power to the emitter?
Great video. Theres no current clamp link in the description?
Here you go :) Uni-T Clamp meter:amzn.to/2Fc1ght
What use of this? Will light shine brighter?
380ma of extra current for each chip you add
so yeah, its brighter
Where did you get the vice to hold the circuit board?..,I need that
I really like videos like this Make more videos thankk
Can i do this in astrolux ea01s driver
Why did you break off the center leg on the chip?
4:00 He explains why.
Trying this out on a cheap flashlight that i upgraded with an SST40
What was the outcome?
@@Leo-gt1bx nothing changed
@@TheEpicMan5273 What was your original LED?
Please, how can i switch between modes?
I've seen people use all three legs to solder, what is the right approach?
When I remove them from the board I splash the whole chip with liquid flux. Get the tail piece hot and then very quickly jump to holding my soldering iron across all 3 of the front pins. When I solder more chips onto the exsisting ones I bend all 3 legs downward and solder the tail pieces together. Then I solder the two outer legs. You don't need to solder the center one because its electrically the same as the tail piece. If you want to give yourself some extra space you can break off the center of those three legs by bending it up and down. This helps keep accidental bridges from occurring on the tiny pins when you solder.
Any ready made drivers that have easy access to strobe mode?
This driver can have strobe memorized in some groups and also have it start as the default in others. asflashlights.com/-diy-parts/75-10-amp-capable-17mm-led-driver.html
Dude you're the bomb I wish I can do that s***I'd like to send you my klarus rs. 20. Any way you can email me to find out how much you charge
Thanks Joseph. Right now I'm not doing any extra mod work, but you might try contacting Vinh from Skylumen.com He's quite good.
