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...

Why would you want 3 x 700mA = 2100 mA?

What would you be running at that power today?

I got all my stuff today. Moh do you think I still need to get a dummy load and test them?

Better safe than sorry since you still need to solder leads on. Testing it again after soldering on them would not be a bad idea even if Moh tested them before sending just to make sure nothing has changed.:beer:

you shouldn't need to. these don't use a pot so there is nothing that can get knocked and adjusted

but at dtr said, it won't hurt. it's better safe than sorry.

Moh, I already ordered a Ben Boost last night but do you think I should change my order of the Ben Boost from 537mA to 496mA? I'm using it with the S06J diode and I'm not sure if 537mA is safe. DTR said he tested all the way till 700mA and one failed but he suggests sticking to below 450mA, others say 500mA. Does 37mA extra make a big difference?

Yeah I know but I would have to buy the parts and build it.

I built my S06J with a 471ma round Moh linear.. works great get about 600mw out of it with a G2 lense.
