The last of my Sure Electronics LED drivers is tested with a 50W LED. A very cheap VGA Cooler heatsink and fan provides cooling and there's a nasty fizzing noise coming from somewhere.

How long can you leave this 50w led on for? Would it be suitable for aquarium light use?
In my lights I swear by high end "TaskLed" drivers.. They are great and never a prob. Anyone have any other quality brands to rec?
I need to find a high voltage LED driver I have a 48 volt Cub chip four of them running in series I need help getting a LED driver for it can you help me out or not just asking sir
i need to talk to u i email u a lot i dont no why are you leaving to videos on YouTube if you're not going to reply to anybody it's kind of amusing to me and ignor in the same way
Does this small vga fan cooling the 50 watt led effectively when the led is on full power?
I have a question do you suggest using a single double decker or 2 in series when running a 100watt led?
did you try it with 100w how was it?
for 50W street light led driver which mosfet i can use in place of TK10A80E
Cant you use termal paste to hold it and transfer the jeta or do you hace to use the holes cause I don't have a drill and taping tolls
Today I put all components together,followed steps and it was a great success. Only limited the voltage to 25 v. Still very bright and the booster does a fine job as well as the heat sink. The booster can be used in lots of geeky applications. Again thanks Julian. One problem remaining : putting all of that in a box!.
Julian, you are the best. We all thank you. I am almost finished getting all of the required parts to build.
What about LED's surface temperature. I've seen here on youtube a test where 100W LED surface heats up to 160 degrees centigrade, which seems a lot to me… The aluminium bottom of LED has a generous heatsink, but the surface heats up realy bad.
So, what would be the best way to eliminate that huge amount of heat of the surface? Maybe submerging in mineral oil or something…? What do you think about that? I'd like to make a 100W flashlight and I need some opinions…
did you ever get a chance to try the vga cooler on a 100w led ?
great series. A problem that I find with these high power LED's is that they usually are not labelled at all. so you have no idea what you are getting. Ordered a 100 Watt LED and sure it gives a lot of light… but then it seems to consume only 660mA at 30 Volts… which makes it more of a 20 Watt LED. Did the seller make a mistake?, or did he just knowingly deceive his customers?
do these led arrays, need reflectors or lenses??
You're the best Mr LED on youtube.
there are definetly a single bead 10W and even 20W led's i have one in my flashlight this one is called cree xml
