OK, I educated myself on Bistro-HD OTSM. Definitely looks like the thing, but I need a clarification. The firmware’s thread mentions that it needs ATtiny85 revision C. It reports that all trial to find it failed. Did you manage to find it?
extra parts price for HD OTSM dropped to 1.5$ as I did change the capacitor brand with same specifications and are above 10 parts Digikey lower prices as well
0.92$ vs original calculation of 2.23$ for the capacitor
Attiny45V microcontroller. It has more memory, which leaves more space for me to do firmware customisation. Unless you intend to change firmware, it’s useless for you.
Yeah i agree, LVP much more crucial for me too.
As far as i understand with 1.2 i loose the ability to add a led to the e-switch to have it show me voltage readouts. But i still could add a led there just as a locator, did i get that right?
Also i could flash the 1.2 with 1.5 when it is ready if it is not by the time of sending out batch 3, correct?
My order should be something like 30mm, Narsil 1.2 with LVP, and 2S LDO if i got everything right.
Btw, can the tactical 100% blast on the rear switch be removed? i would prefer to use the clicky just as lockout
Your right, you can’t use the indicator output with v1.2, but you don’t really need it. When you triple click, the main led will blink out your voltage. Plus you can use the power output pad to make the side switch light up when the tail switch is on (locator).
If you know how to flash it, then sure, you could upgrade to version 1.5 when it is ready. I don’t know how to do that.
The tactical rear switch is written in the code so it can’t be turned off. It would require a reflash to get rid of it. I have the tactical on my L6, but find its not as practical as I thought it would be. It’s so easy to click on and off with the side switch that I find myself not wanting the tactical option. This second driver I’m ordering will be programmed to do nothing when the rear switch is activated. I will know the rear switch is on because I plan to have the side switch light up on my new light as well.
2B seems like the best option to me.
Btw, in group mode what are the spacings of the different levels?
And is there a posibility to choose custom output levels for a certain group?
Edit:
Oh, and will there be a version with both LVP and Temp protection for 2S in the near future ? Is it a hardware or software limitation at the moment?
So if i get the 1.2 version driver now, and later Tom releases NarsilM, i could flash NarsilM and get the Temp protection too, is that correct?
Or some hardware modding would be required too, to get both LVP and Temp protesction with NarsilM?
