So. Its been quite awhile since I've posted as my interests have turned to drone stuff. However I've always wanted to build a powerful Phlatlight and have some sitting around and one in particular that I "need" to do something with.
I already have a 5A green phlatlight maglight build that is a PT-54. You will just have to take my word that it's quite a shock just how bright that much green is. What I also have is a green PT-120 or 121 that is WAY WAY brighter and can easily draw close to 40 Amps if you let it. Ive tested this with multiple Samsung 25r in a parallel setup.
What I cant seem to find is a a phlatlight LED driver rated any higher than 7.5A. I ordered one from China for about $10 this morning as I've got other phlatlights I could use it with but there must be a DC driver out there that could supply between 4-5V at 30A although 20A would be satisfactory.
I dont expect there is one that is something that could go into a flashlight type host so I'm really looking at putting it into a project box with a properly rated switch. I'm not really expecting to run it for more than a minute and it's really a shock value thing more than a flashlight type thing.
I dont know if it's possible to parallel drivers or not as theres always slight differences between the same drivers.
Of course I'm looking to pay as little as possible so theres that too.
SO, any ideas? Theres no such thing as this cant be done and I know for a fact theres some really slick electronics guys here
Sorry I havent been around but life stirs the pot and things change. Visiting my 2 grandsons at the moment (2 years and a 5 week old)
I havent combined lasers and drones as I think its asking for a LOT of trouble. Been modding drones though with interesting LED combinations lately. Sometime in the next few months I expect to be buying either a Yuneec typhoon H plus real sense or a DJI mavic 2 zoom purchase but we will see as it would obliterate all the personal cash I've been saving.
