anyway to tell a S06J from a PL450?

[Livinloud]

arrived yesterday since it was here when i got home and the results are in........................................5.6mm so S06J (havent tested it yet but i know its 5.6mm) could be a M140 but testing will come as soon as i have a driver. need to test my current drivers to see if any are acceptable for a S06J, was thinking 400-500mA. i have a 378mA that i can test it with soon. S06J at 378mA will do roughly 200-350mW iirc and depending on the diode efficiency, correct?

Mine running at 400mA is putting out 530mW

oh sweet!!!! thats even better news
i may just run it at 378mA for a while and then if i decide to go higher i always can. Ill test it tomorrow, need to buy a lens as well. you running a 3 element or G1/2?

 

[Speedy78]

G2 lene. I went for power.

hopefully i can get 400mW with a 3 element then ill get a G1/2 some day but dont want to spring for two of them right now
