The short Ultra-Power afterburner rings are based on the same emitter technology and on the specially manufactured aluminium core PCBs, but waive the cooling ducts to save size and weight. They have a lower performance in order to enable normal operation for the model. This is basically implemented by a puposely thin cable. The rings may only be operated permanently about 1 minute and therefore, the mixing to the gas channel should only happen in the upper section. Since a too high ambient temperatures should be avoided, these rings are specially suitable for EDS systems and score with the low weight.
The light output of the emitter rings is gigantic high and even in an area of >120° to all ring sides visible. Thus, it will both directly shine into the outlet and into the nozzle, which strengthens tremendously the effect of a glowing pushing rod.
Direct operation with 2S (8V) Lipo. Please ensure sufficient cooling air during operation. The high power requirement of the afterburner rings requires sufficiently dimensioned batteries and an efficient control. Please see our recommended modules.
This ring is delivered with a 1m/0.25mm silicon cable. A second cable can be soldered in if needed. For a better light distribution, you can use our nozzle attachments under the rubric accessories.
Light Spreader
NEW: Each afterburner ring comes with a matching 2nd generation Nozzle attachment. With the cover you get a totally different light effect, especially recommended if the ring can be fully visible during operation.

The reference power is a comparison value between our offered lights. It normally refers to an operating voltage of 12V/3S Lipo and is dependent on bulbs, operating mode and technology.
The luminaire is ready to use for operation with 2S LiPo (ca. 8V). With 3S (12V), the enclosed resistor has to be added. Please note that high-performance LEDs can get very hot, up to 70°C is quite normal. These lamps with heatsink cases are suitable for continuous operation if an air flow (during flight) is possible. If this is not the case, the duty cycle of 5-10 minutes should not be exceeded. Pay always attention to the operating temperature, we do not assume any warranty in case of overheating.
Note: The LED lights are extremely bright! Never look directly into a LED!
