Nobody needs to worry about donating for these when they're making them on a small scale. Even with the large scale stuff, it is a request / courtesy, not a mandate. But that's what helps keep these kinds of things possible. IE, if Moh builds $1 into his pricing to support development, it helps make this stuff possible, and encourages other people to try this model again in the future.

Donations (where applicable / desired / appropriate / whatever) are just to Ben, not me.

presale is over, and it ate up all 100 of the drivers.
Should have them available again soon

I think they are actually going to be a little more than that after the presale.

It is nuts, it is like he wants to be paid for his time and effort! Crazy Americans!

If I don't discuss it first, I don't discuss it at all!

"What, this old thing?"

I think there are some modifications that could be done to make these faster to reflow.

For one, I can't imagine that increasing the size of the board by 1mm in each dimension would actually impact their use-cases substantially. Yet and additional 1mm of space would actually make positioning some of the components easier.

There are also some other no-brainers like changing the 0603 100k resistor into a 0805.

Moh: Which revisions of the PCB are you using? If I tackle some small changes, I'd like to work from that.

that's not an uber noob question. it's actually already been asked and i forgot to check.

I think i looked briefly and it looked doable, however there is no room for heat sinking, other than simply gluing the driver to the pill itself.

thats perfect for a build using the new single mode blues or greens(when avalible) the for a c6
using MM blues puts puts out to much heat for my liking

I still think you can get 4 drivers on that saik heatsink It's sick!. So why not 3@700ma? Still be cheaper than a micro which wont do that kind of output. I assume you could run 2, 3 or 4 drivers at lower amp in parallel???

Think I was told just add up the resistance and do the math...
