Shop For LEP Modules (Blue Lake/Flamingo Light) ?
https://white-laser-lighting.com/?ref=srxqurlv (affiliate link - code 'DARRENYEO' for 10% off)
I talk about a new LEP demo module I received from Blue Lake/Flamingo Light, the manufacturer and source of all LEP modules you see in your favourite lights.
Blue Lake provided a sample of this module for this review. I was not paid to make this video, nor have I withheld any negative points.

Video Transcript:
General thoughts after a week of usage/size comparison/practicality/interesting things:
• So this is a slightly different review video from the others I've made - this is an LEP demo kit from the company Blue Lake/Flamingo Light (US) that is responsible for producing all the LEP modules you see in your favorite LEP lights.
• Recently Ted from Blue Lake has made their LEP modules available for hobbyists to purchase directly and offered to send me a sample of their 19.2W LEP Demo kit.
• What you get in the kit: LEP module (mine is the 19.2W, 950-lumen module), heatsink, driver/power supply, 30mm focusable lens. You can also get a triple lens kit for the same price (27, 38, 55mm). The 55mm lens is capable of producing a 2.8km beam.
• Website - examples of various modules available.
Overall Construction, LED, lens, bezel and reflector
• The LEP module itself is made of copper, and screws into the heatsink. I was surprised at how small the module was. Could imagine this in a smaller light like a Convoy S2+ or Reylight Pineapple. The lens kit appears to have a 3D printed housing + two lenses + wheel that focuses the beam from wide to narrow.
• Specifications of the driver noted on the exterior. A power source is also provided. My friend and fellow flashlight Tim McMahon purchased an AC to USB-C adapter to run his LEP kit via a power bank.
• Demonstration: I notice that without the lens, the LEP module produced a wide, floody beam - similar to what a LED without a reflector would produce. The lens focuses all that light to a central hotspot with virtually no spill. There is also a reduction of light output during this process.
UI - modes
• Demo kit comes with only one mode - you'd need to pair this with a suitable driver and battery.
Verdict
The release of LEP modules to the general public is great news, and I can see a lot of modders getting excited to put one of these into their lights. Some of the modules like the flat base ones seem more versatile than the screw-in ones, as you could install them in a wider variety of hosts.

In this video, I compare the Convoy L8 and the L21B. This is a frequently requested video that I finally got around to making. The L8 is brighter overall, but the L21B with CSLPM1.F1 throws further. It's almost imperceptible in the beam shots though. My light meter measured 1.66km throw for the L21B.
