FS: Full Colour Driver Extension for the White Fusion kit






Sorry I forgot to reply back... Right now I am still waiting on parts to finish my last drivers. I've waited for very long on the parts now and I'm starting to get annoyed. Hopefully they get here soon!

Cool, not a problem. So that means I'm in on the first set, and don't have to wait until the next batch? Sweet!


Just let me know when to Paypal you, and I'll send it! :beer: :bowdown:
 
i am sold on one of these drivers when there are more available/if any free up!
 
Absolutely, and now there is just one more to get this batch going... What currents would you like?
 
I think you will want more for the green. I like having the full rang for that color. They usualy take more current than when your driving a driver only. This is because there is some loss with the crystals.

i will take your advice and revert to my original request.
 
I am very interested in purchasing a White FUSION and this driver. My only concern is that I will be building with a 12x blu-ray and a 300mW+ red module. Meaning I'll need somewhere around 100mW of green to compete with the other two colors but green modules over 100mW take somewhere between 500-600mA of current. Is a preset driver with 500-600mA available?

edit: spelling

You just have to mod the sense resistors on the driver, which isn't too bad/difficult. Once you mod those (with proper wattage resistors, naturally), then the limit is 800mA (which I think is determined by the transistors).

MisterWilling went through this process with his build, and I'm going through it right now as well.

Has anyone published instructions on this?
 
Not that I've seen. FML sent me a PM with images showing which resistors control the peak current, but it's not that hard to follow the traces on the driver either. The sense resistors run between pins 2 and 3 of the 317 chips, just like with the classic LM317/DDL driver.
