Ugh anybody need a driver? seems like hardly anyone is doing builds nowadays...

[Giannis_TDM]

Kind of in need of cash ATM, like 5 dollars off of any driver in need. Although be advised the stock is rather limited, like 8 bucks and 2 boosts, kinda happy about that actually, brings my total sold to about 100. If anybody is interested PM me cause I am about to go to sleep, website for reference: https://sites.google.com/view/giannislasershack/laserled-drivers

too bad none of yours work with a single battery

Who told you that? I am pretty sure you can run IR's and reds with a 1 cell with the buck and the rest with the boost, please do not say such things without doing a bit of fact-checking, thanks, In fact, most of my builds are one cell with either my boost or buck, I really like my pen styles

Giannis, I cannot access your site.

That's a bit weird, try the homepage: https://sites.google.com/view/giannislasershack/home

edit: huh, seems like an LPF only thing, when I post the same link on discord it works perfectly.

I always check my facts before posting! based on your specs at the website

both of the drivers you have listed have a MIN input of 4.2v - Im sorry but a single cell isn't going to cut it for that.

Ideally it may get to 4.2v on a single cell but even if it does, its not going to hold it for long. So either the specs are wrong or something - links are directly below.

Giannis_TDM's Laser shack - 3A buck

3A capable Buck topology High efficiency constant current source.

Giannis_TDM's Laser shack - 800mA boost

Miniature 800mA capable 7.2mm x 12.9mm Boost topology Constant current source

If these specs are not correct than I'd be interested in a couple, but I want to run either a 10440 or a 18650 to drive a red.

a Flexdrive, for example is rated from 2.0v to 5.5v input which IS single cell capable.

Oh, I deeply apologize, you're in fact correct, for both drivers min vin is 3v, that is reflected on the datasheet too. I will correct it as soon as I get home, thanks!
