Sofirn have been selling replacement battery tubes for the Q8 for at least a couple months now. Check here.
This is definitely the time to update the old BLF Q8 firmware (NarsilM v1.0). Plus it adds another selling point. :+1:
Think of all the people who didn’t buy the original Q8 due to them not offering it in cool white (the most popular color of all outside of BLF and CPF).
If Sofirn wants to change the firmware, it’s open-source and already available. I haven’t talked to Sofirn about it, but it’s definitely possible. NarsilM had some updates since then, and there are other compatible interfaces too.
I have to agree with BlueSwordM, everyone thinks my CW lights are more impressive. I always hear that because they can see the beam more clearly it looks brighter. We know that isn’t the case, but I hear it from friends and family.
