We supposed to stay at the cutting edge of this bike light thing when they do this before we even have the previous stuff in our hands.

The news on these gets better, we have Q5 in stock now and I have just ordered R2 bin in XPE and have also received some 20mm triple optics to suit

Three R2, 600+ lumens from a 20mm source

20 mm triple optics I like that and the beams should be better than the MCE stuff .

Just dont hold your breath

Yes I just saw that Trout.
:crazy: :incazzato: :crazy:
I have a 400mile ride this weekend which is a lot of boring saddle time to think up a new design because my penta light is humungous.

Hell Znomit my 40 mile ride this weekend pales compared to that :eekster:I tip my hat to you

I just had a workout and can fit 3 of them into my maglite mod

now i will forget about this thread untill they are on the shelves

Exciting!

But how are these better than MC-E? A better bin, but what else?

On the downside - poor optic selection I would guess? I'm a bit sceptic of a triple optic squeezed into 20mm..

 

[ocean breathes salty]

Oh baby, that would work well with my duster.... that would be 2400 lumens!

Seemingly from browsing on CPF it is to do with the size of the light source
the smaller the better .this is why the P7 & MCE have as yet not as good optics. as the XRE .

three tiny emitters each with its own optic , as opposed to 4 in a MCE all sharing the one optic.
I may be talking bollocks but that is how I see it

 

[ocean breathes salty]

Did weelight give any idea about when we would be able to order them? Where did you find it? In an email or is on CPF somewhere? I had a quick look on their site and couldn't find anything about it.

Sorry Salty I should have put the link up .

How do you put the links into one word

:arf: Oi Salty NO :arf:

MTBR rules no lights to be brighter than Trouties :nono:

Somehow I don't think it would last longer than 24 hours before an 8 MCE hipflex driven death ray comes off the Trout Lathe....:thumbsup:

WeLight,

When will this be available?

> 3 R2s mounted on a MCPCB . What will be the available tints?

> optics. Supplier?


I too would prefer this over the MC-E setup - at least until the optic situation clears up.

 

[Hack On Wheels]

Oh the possibilities!! This is going to make it tough... Dual MC-E or 6 XPE (dual triples)... I think still MCE if the Boom optics turn out well, but dang that is tough!

Hi OBS
I have the leds and optics, just waiting on a PCB to arrive, I am not putting things up I dont have, we have had enough dramas with doing that lately, so I will release only when all the bits are here

tints, I wont know till they ship, optics are Carclo, but test we have done with them on our 10mm MCPCBs say this will be a very cool little kit

WeLight,

Hi Mark, does the optic have a combination of beams or is it three of the same angle?

:lol: Nice one Salty .:lol:

The planned deathray is just back from the anodisers .

Cant fit 8 MCE in though 6 or 7 max
this one could be on the cooker for a while while waiting for the release of the HipFlex.

or it might get 3 of these litle triple babies in it who knows yet

 

[smudgemtbuk]

That turned out nice mrT

cant see the ruler though ?
