It's basically 4 Seoul P4s under one dome. Power requirements are a bit steep. Think that would work with a color disk and show good color?

MY GOD!

2800mah!

Yeah, I'm not qualified to even attempt electronics like that. Maybe TCSS will sell a hilt that holds a car battery.

2.8 Amp... good luck powering that with standard battery pack at full current!
and... what about poor runtime?

Altough, I'd like to see how the blade looks.

What about 2 9volts on 3 1amp pucks?

[Moordak]

Looks like the max forward voltage was 4.6 volts though. Couldn't you just use a standard 4.8v AA 2600 mah NIMH pack with three 1000ma buckpucks? I mean, you wouldn't get even an hour of runtime, but it'd be bright while it lasted.

9V's have crappy capacity and ability to put out current. You'll see it die before your eyes.

2800 MA, but at 4 V (ish). Using the batteries I am for the 10 watt LED it should be possible... 2600 MAH, max draw at 1C. Using 8 batts, in 2 sets of 4 would get you 4.8V at 5200 MA capacity.

The ones I'm using are also 4 LEDS, but with a pair connected in series and the 2 pairs then run from (2) 700 MA buckpucks. That's 1400 MA from 9.6V... roughly equivalent to 2800 MA from 4.8 V if wired that way. (I would like to try to 1000 MA buckpucks too.)

I calculated a run time of between 1 Hr 15 Mins to 1 Hr 45 Mins... depending on how perfect world specs play out in reality. (It's still a work in progress)

Roughly 15$ for a pack of 4 batts.

Probably melted and drooping towards the ground .

[Hasid Lafre]

I think it would take something like this to melt a poly carb blade. Iam sure whatever was in the blade would melt so prolly sanding the blade ti diffuse the light would be a must.
