Thanks djozz 
Well I’m glad I picked some up from you djozz while they lasted. Hopefully someone else picks up the high capacity 18350 game, and everything but 18650 for that matter.
When might u get more black convoy c8 host in stock ?
Hi, Richard! My friend wants a black Emisar D4, probably a 219C.
He doesn’t like the new ‘rough’ Emisar anodizing on my D1S.
Do your black D4 models have the original ‘smooth’ ano?
Hey Richard! I wanted to put in a request that you carry the Astrolux MF-01 in 219c and XP-G3 flavors as part of your stock when it becomes available! I think it would be a good replacement for the M43 if it’s no longer available.
Was going to ask about a product here but I guess better to email MTN? Looks like the last post/reply from him here was back in September.
It doesn’t hurt to ask here as there are many folks very familiar with Richards products.
OK I also just emailed an inquiry…. If they will soon be stocking some XP-L2 5000K bare LED’s.
Okay, a question about his stock and reordering is something only he can answer. Lol. I thought you had a different type of question.
I don’t know if he’s even working this close to holidays.
Does anyone have information about how to activate moonlight mode for a 17mm FET driver (standard firmware)?
Specs say to solder pin #2 to ground. Is this referring to the pin on the fet or the microcontroller?
Also, will this affect the other modes?
What is the output for moonlight mode on a fet driver? I’m hoping to get my light down to < 1 lumen for reading in bed.
first post in over a month. Think of all the work Richard is able to get done without attending to this thread 
Pin #2 on the attiny13a. There should be a little dot at pin 1.
Thanks for the info :+1:
Now I get to play the game called “Don’t bridge the pins”.
FET moon is … generally not very good. Usually bright and/or highly voltage-sensitive. The details depend on the exact hardware though, and which method is used to implement moon.
Yep that’s the one. Tried the bridge (pin 2 to ground) and ended up with 1 mode (high). I must have bridged pins 3 and 4 via the trace. Cleaned up the solder so that pins 3 and 4 aren’t bridged and ended up with 1 mode again but this time it was low mode. I must done something to the microcontroller by running voltage with pins 3 and 4 bridged. Here’s a pic of how it ended up. Everything looks good except it only has low now.
Is there any hope of recovering this driver?
I’m thinking that a FET + 7135 may be the way to go if moonlight mode is wanted.
Update: I got it to work! —> I removed the copper wire and soldered the pin with a “2” next to it to ground. Moonlight mode is now activated. Moon mode with this driver is not super-low (like firefly) but provides enough usable light to comfortably read books, maps etc in the dark without compromising night vision.
I have one of the FET+7135 on a triple mod and it has a very nice ML.
Thanks for the advice!
I’ll have to try that next.
I think I see the problem. The pin closest to the ground ring is marked with a 2 and has a tiny pad (on the right of your picture) bridge that to ground.
