Yea, so I emailed the manager to find out why digikey extended my p/o by a year without my knowledge. Meaning if I had not contacted them for a hr to get an answer: my order wouldnt cancel like I arranged it to. If I had not spoke w them they woulda just sent me the parts and charged my card...
@Scotch089 they told me they weren't sure what step they offered. But they'd get cb bin for sure. I am a bit unsure till I get more info but they connected me w rep in charge of Cree orders, jerry. I want cb or higher and 2 step would be best! But they couldn't tell me what they'd get either.
Well fester, Thanks for the motivation boss! Since I am missing just the leds, I can get the wire and L bars from home depot and mount up! (a pun because I got the mounts) lol Ill post pics in the next few days. I got the cpu fan, the mounts, the drivers, the paste and the solder. Just some...
I wonder if they do L2L over sea of plane. If we shipped air vs sea, we would def get them before others. just all subtle things most people dont think about but could really be why we are waiting longer.
lol dont fester to much resentment now. lol KB is 51 a pop and thats pretty low even comp to bulk discounts. btw KB seeeems to be the prefered method of most fo the peeps in here cause they are cheap and thats where mouser and digi are waiting for their shipments from anyway, china. lol for all...
yea, they are cheap, 160 for 4 or something. I ws told I cna run 2 cxa on my 1050ma meanwell but it would need to be pushed down to 950ma, they are dimmable. I got them in. I am literally just waiitn gon leds. @FESTER665 did you see kingbright may get them in sooner? I contacted them and they...
Well digi key email states 4-1 is new delivery date for the cxb, the old timers know what they are talking about, digi key sucks at supply chain, or cree. whomever it may be, you sir can suckit!
if it was easy everyone would do it. work implies the lack of ease lol. Thats all good work though. my worst was an indian mkt300 teacher. I choked in class on my water,high of course, then she proceeded to yell at me continously while i was choking until I could talk. even then she made me...
@Greengenes707 I studied supply chain in college, this process wouldnt be hard to get down. the failure rates of the few components could cost and eat all your profits up. I think you could build a light an hour. self distributing aint easy either lol.
lol fosho. that is what I Was getting at lol. the capital necessary to make it cheap is alot though. not a bad idea if you can get consistency, but that is the hard part for most. you and supra get cost analysis, it is not totally crazy to make a light thats profitable. and not to much time...
@draz yea, they should do a bulk buy, then make them and sell them to people who want em lol. at a small marrkup. could prolly pump out 1 or 2 before lunch. 50$ in profit per unit would make 100 a day and be totally a cool idea. to bad capital is generally better spent.
cool so then I would say those holders I posted will work. I didnt see cxa listed on the product specs you posted.

@bizfactory
hey man straight up theres like only a few holders. That may work if you get right size. part number 50-2234C will work for sure though. I got them in the 35mm version. http://www.newark.com/ideal/50-2234c/led-holder-cxa30-array-series/dp/90W0065?CMP=AFC-OP ther is link. PS the cxb3070 are out...
alesh Man I was saying that earlier. the 90 cri have heavy on reds. which I considered adding. The sun spectrum behind that would be a good means of checking the points of excess on each one. If I get time ill try to do that. Really bad w image editing if u havent seen my rudimentary drawings...
