Re: The REAL Kryton GB round #3
I can build a driver, maybe 70%-90% efficiency, capable of stepping down up to 9v to between 1.8 and 3v at up to 6A, and with a warning LED, for about $40 shipped. I'd aim for 5-10% current ripple maximum, but I can't guarantee this until I've checked my design thoroughly on a scope, and for that I need to actually have built my prototypes.
Would people use a pre-set, one-current driver which doesn't drift at all (send it back to me, for a nominal fee I change the current), or an adjustable driver? Pre-set would have much lower current drift than adjustable. It may be an option to have two different current ranges, triggered by clicking the tail switch quickly, but only with my pre-set design.
If it would be easier, I can set this up as a poll in the corresponding section and see what the majority want?
Also, @Kenom, would you be drilling the heads yourself? If someone wanted to lathe their own mount for, say, a green module, would this also be an option?
