    I just put an SFT40 into my C8+ with 5A convoy driver. Measured throw at 813m with a UNI-T UT383s. Such an amazing led!

      Hey mate bridge the sense resistors on that driver and the SFT-40 will do 9.5 amps with a high drain cell . It's the same driver I am using in this light. These are great LEDs.

    Good review, its throws fantastic well.😮 169 kcd, 3meters = 780 meter😉

    I wish more flashlight manufacturers would offer the SFT40 as a stock option. Hoping for a 5000K version too 😁

    *wow cool, I'm looking for information on sst40 what is the estimated difference in highlight distance of sst40 vs sft40*

    • @everydaysurvivalgear
      @everydaysurvivalgear  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Distance depends on the light its in. Cd per mm i am not sure i cant test that, but the SFT-40 about double the throw of of the SST-40. So in a C8 the SST-40 will do around 80-90kcd and the SFT-40 will do 160+ kcd.

    I just bought a Fenix ​​Bc26r(1600 Lumens) bike light, it has a Luminus SST-40
    And I have another Magicshine Allty1000(1000 Lumens) light that has a CREE XP-L V6,
    Do you know how efficient it is compared to this one? In terms of light output, efficiency, performance, etc, which one is better and why?

    • @everydaysurvivalgear
      @everydaysurvivalgear  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      They should be fairly equal in lumens per watt, the XPL is rated to around 1150 lumens @ 3 amps for the highest bin. The SST-40 can do up to 1800 lumens @ 5 amps.
      Over driven the SST-40 will be brighter by a few hundred lumens and should be able to sustain that output better as it's a bigger foot print of a LED.
      I can't say which will be better as I don't own them but both LEDs are great. The Cree XPL 2 has been out for a few years now so you don't see the XPL in that many lights while the SST-40 is a bit newer.

    What driver did you use in these flashlights?

    • @everydaysurvivalgear
      @everydaysurvivalgear  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hey mate I am using a BLF A6 driver, it's a direct drive driver so you get max output.

    May i ask the needed parts to build the sft 40?
    Size of the reflector, driver

    • @everydaysurvivalgear
      @everydaysurvivalgear  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The light in the video is a Convoy C8 but you can use any generic C8, use the BLF A6 driver which is a direct drive. The LED is the Luminus SFT-40 , Easiest way to build the light would be to buy following parts.

    SFT40 better than SST40?

    • @everydaysurvivalgear
      @everydaysurvivalgear  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Depends on what you want to use it for, generally I would say yes the SFT-40 is better.

    How much lumen sft 40?

    • @everydaysurvivalgear
      @everydaysurvivalgear  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Should be the same price as the XML 2 C8, the LED alone can be bought for around 4-6 USD.
