Can be done. I set mine to memorized level. So it acts like another momentary mode but 4 clicks will exit

Yep. That’s the “discrete ramp” feature you may see talked about for the Anduril firmware. When the light is on, 3 clicks switches between the smooth and discrete ramping. It’s a bit difficult to say what the exact output levels will be, but you can get roughly those ballparks.
By default, the discrete mode has 7 levels, and for the FW3A, the lowest discrete level will probably be around 5-10 lumens and the highest discrete level 800-1000 lumens*, but both the number of levels and the brightness of the minimum and maximum levels can be configured.
\ Assuming I understand the relationship between the 8 bit PWM values and resulting 7135 current correctly.

Yes, this is part of Anduril. Basically you change it to stepped mode and configure the levels yourself. Checkout the UI graphic or the anduril-manual.txt mentioned a few posts earlier.

ToyKeeper:
I recently found a way to eliminate a bunch of code, to make room for new things. I’m hoping to do some fancy stuff with aux LEDs in that space, but no hardware exists for it yet.
Anyway, putting other-ramp floor on “click, hold” costs about 60 bytes and makes the light act a little weird when doing 4 clicks to unlock. Instead of “moon moon moon moon”, it goes “moon LOW moon moon” or “LOW moon LOW LOW”. So for now I think I’ll leave it as a compile-time option which isn’t enabled by default.
Nice to hear. My ROT66 is one of the earlier aux LED versions with an entirely stand alone aux board, but maybe in the future I’ll see about a swap if the firmware offers more advanced functionality.

Guys what are you thinking about this:
In LOCKOUT MODE:
- hold : momentary moon (= floor from current ramp)
click, release, hold : momentary 10 lm (= floor from other ramp)
Good or bad?
(but I don’t know if this possible to program)
Idea is:
In general I want the ramp start at moonlight.
And for normal carry I lock high power lights out.
It is for the same use case as Lockout momentary, but when you use it and realize you need more light, like: Oh, 1 lm is not enough I need ten times more.

So, it is added? And it is only for the guys with a flash adapter!
Tank you Toykeeper! :+1:
Beside the “random” blink at unlock, does it feel useful?

Toykeeper, it seems there are earlier posts in which you mentioned you have a prototype.
Can you make an Imgur album and give us the second best thing to an FW3A (a bunch of photos of an FW3A)?
Disassembled, assembled, next to other lights, sitting in snow, etc. Whatever you feel generous to provide.

I‘m usually active in the tlf but now it looks like both threads there are closed. Does someone here know more about that?

Hallo,
nachdem viele von euch schon seit langem auf ein Update zu Fritz‘ 3000 Lumen EDC warten, freut es mich umso mehr, euch nun die Ergebnisse unserer bisherigen Arbeit vorstellen zu dürfen. Obgleich es in eine andere Richtung geht, als die...

Do we assume that means we are getting very close and they are not adding any more to the interest list? Or something worse?

I have an account at TLF and I also can’t view any of the FW3A threads anymore. What’s going on?
Please add me for 1x LH351D
Many thanks.

Hmmm… probably best to assume nothing either way . TK or someone will let us know what is happening when they know.

Good idea, teacher. I think I remember learning somewhere what happens when we assume.
