    Help Identifying LED

    Just looking at the LED is impossible to say what tint and bin it is. Turn that light on and see for yourself what color it puts out. If you're unable to determine whether it's cool or warm, than it is really not important. EDIT: If the colours on the screen look right, than i would assume...

    Distance between drivers and emitters

    As long as you use proper gauge wiring, yes. But keep in mind that there will be some voltage drop in the wiring which will the driver have to compensate, so don't push the driver to the upper voltage limit.

    sepic converter for power regulation

    You would be better off buying a decent buck driver like taskled bflex.

    sepic converter for power regulation

    3 XM-Ls at 1A will produce more light than one at 3A and they would also need way les heatsinking, meaning your heatsinks would be way smaller and lighter, mounted on the hexacopter they would also have constant airflow.

    XP-G2 Triple Optics @ 20mm?

    You could also try Satu 9deg. optics

    COB LED and fan all off one power supply?

    What's your application? There are fans that run of mains but can be quiet bulky.

    Running LED drivers in parallel

    You have already split your strip in two halves and you already have two drivers? Where is the problem? Wire aech half to it's own driwer and you're good.

    High CRI LED for "Workprinter" movie transfer machine

    You do realise there are only three screws to disassemble the lens part? Or am I missing something in the picture?

    High CRI LED for "Workprinter" movie transfer machine

    Firs of all remove that lens and let us know what LED is hiding inside, than can we talk about replacement. Otherwise it will be royal PITA to focus the beam with existing setup.

    MT-G2 Will this setup work?

    With that buckpuck you're not getting even close to max lumen. That driver is pushing only 1000mA to the led and MT-G2 on copper can handle way more than that. Using a copper PCB and solid copper heatsink with a led capable of doing 18W driwen at 6W is a total nonsense, waste of time and funds...

    Cree XML2 From 23.8V 400mA DC?

    You coul also try finding a 7V transformer and use LM350 for up to 3A output. It's not the most efficient way but it does the job.

    Reflector

    Fraen FRC-N series are 35mm in diameter, and are pretty decent reflectors.

    My first project, lots to learn.....

    A L2x host with Ahortons aspheric kit commes to mind.

    Can this be done? (driver question)

    You could also use RGB 7135 driver ;) and piggyback some extra 7135s when needed for higher output.

    45° helical end mill

    Bollocks! We use these for hardcore center drilling, slotting and chamfering.
