If you want fully assembled and tested drivers reply here
Flashed and thermal calibrated MCUs are included.
This batch will be reflow soldered
Today 200 AMC7135 arrived and from last drivers I had 2 boards over
so i could fit the rest of parts to them, 21mm fully reflow soldered, 17mm resistors and Attiny25 hand soldered
need to use less paste especially on the FET, and add solder with iron to fets pad, as its not easy to push it down and hold still till the solder gets solid
you can choose soldering paste
recommended
with lead 62% tin, 36% lead, and 2% silver
*or *
lead free 96.5 % tin, 3% silver, and 0.5% copper
Oshpark has all boards from first order shipped, so it wont be long till first drivers go into production
Check the Excel screenshot if the information to your order is right, I keep it up to date dayly
Availiable options:
there are different sizes availiable 15, 17, 20, 21 and 22mm
those are cheap on the PCBs from Oshpark so I may end up with some unused boards
30mm and bigger are possible as well, but add costs depending on size
Information about this driver here
http://budgetlightforum.com/node/48447
There will be a very good SIR800 FET used
You can choose a custom number of 7135 less than the maximum
can be equipped with Attiny 25 or 85
running Bistro
or Narsil Triple v1.4 latest version with fixed bugs
For Lexel or anyone interested, I’m figuring out the support for adding R1/R2 LVP (2S cells) to NarsilTriple, but it will mean losing the Indicator LED support, so must be a compile switch then.
Drivers will be fully tested before shipped
Narsil v1.4 driver will be thermal calibrated as well
you can choose the temperature for stepdown,
the time for stepdowns depends on the lights size/heat, a Pocket rocket off a 14500 high drain will need a shorter time than a Convoy L6
standard will be 55°C
standard time between steps will be 45s
temp calibration with hairdryer
custom mode groups can be programmed for a small price depending how much to modify
ATM there are 2 main options for 2S Narsil for lights like Convoy L6
Narsil v1.2 utilising low voltage protection on pin7
Narsil v1.4 utilizing indicator LED on Pin 7, has some bugfixes and temperature protection
but Tom E is working on v1.5 where it is possible to choose between indicator pin and LVP
For 2S lights that use only a sideswitch or you dont lock out the light all the time a LDO is needed,
the zener mod has a very high parasitic drain
2S LDO is availiable for 17, 21, 22, 26, 30 and 46mm
2S Zener Mod is availiable on all sizes
efficiency advantage over Fet+7135*1
this is just an example, keep in mind that triple hotrods get more gain than a single emitter light
Springs for 15 and 17mm Board will be phosphor bronze

What about a 30mm size like these in a 1S with Narsil?
http://www.mtnelectronics.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id...
KB1428 “Live Life WOT”
the bigger ones can be used as 1S or with a LDO for more cells
of course other sizes like 26 or 30mm are possible like in TA thread
as you pay for board surface 3 30mm cost 7$, if I only build one I got 2 boards that want to be payed
for SRK each PCB costs 5.5$, so if I make only one 11$ of boards unused
its not the problem to make other sizes as they are done by hand,
just Oshpark send minimum of 3 PCBs, so its a cost factor if I only make one and pay for 3 boards

Is narsil “fixed” for 2s now? like low voltage warning.
If yes i could be interested in a 30mm one with a LDO
Ill ask Tom E,
but as its Narsil triple v1.3 likely fixed
a lot features like temperature stepdown added to the original Fet+1*7135
and those boards come with pad for a LDO

in Narsil 2 channel its already implemented
I am sure it will be in triple soon

Ok, great thanks.
Have you measured the result and of course, was it worth it?
You don’t need LDO for 1S…… 2-3-4S e-switch of course Zener for mechanical button switch.

I would be in for 5×17mm Bistro at least
Hi Lexel, I would like to buy one 15mm and one 17mm Narsil.
Thanks for offering this for us folks in Europe
I’d be in for 2 × 17mm bistro.
Edit with a long spring.
Awesome!! Thank you for doing this!
I would like:
3 × 17mm Bistro
1 × 30mm, 2S, Narsil (is this what I would use for a L6 mod?)
The 30mm 2S Narsil works with Eswitch and fits the L6
It can be used with Zener Mod, but you need to lock out the light because that has a quite high parasitic drain, the LDO reduces the parasitic drain so no lockout needed
Narsil can be modified so the light gets on at Turbo if you want to use the forward switch tactical, similar to Klarus XT series lights

Hi I will take 1× 17mm Bistro long spring.
Forgive my ignorance… I’m not sure what the pros/cons are of the various options. Basically I would like minimal parasitic drain, most efficient low and mid modes, Narsil ramping, and of course FET turbo.
What is your recommendation?
Also, can the tail switch be used for lockout?
Thank you for providing this service.
I’ll be in for two 17mm (short spring) with latest Narsil Triple, looks like Tom E just uploaded v1.4 tonight.
I think the standard mode groups should be fine and 55C sound like a good stepdown.
I plan on putting one in a skilhunt h03 headlight. Would it be possible to operate the indicator led inside the e-switch with this driver?
I did put a 21mm inside my Skilhunt H03
If the driver is configured to enable indicator LED it works adding a 4.7kOhms resistor to pin 7 like this
I can add that resistor already
If you want that I configure the driver add 1$ and instructions

Your right, looks like I’ll need 21mm boards. The second driver is for an older skilhunt H02, looks like 21mm board also.
So I’ll take two 21mm boards and yes, please configure one of them with the resistor and instructions.
Are you using the default mode groups in you headlight? If you have any changes in the mode groups that work better for headlight usage please let me know.
Thank you very much.
I did modify the modegroups a bit so they fit better to the 7135*5+1 I did put in my skilhunt H03
For a fully equipped 7135*7+1 the standard mode groups will be OK
You can look in the Narsil code and tell me changes if you want
As the light has a DTP star you could also get a higher temperature value when the stepdown kicks in, as it dont get too warm holding in your hands

I will trust your judgment since your familiar with the host and driver. Please change the stepdown temp to what you feel is best. If you can make improvements on the mode groups I’ll trust your judgment on that as well. Otherwise we can keep them stock. Thanks
