he uses a Maxim with integrated reference that has a parasitic drain 2-3 times more than my solution
I asked him if I can use his board as a starting point to do my own, but I ended up making some things differently including another comparator(mainly because its cheaper and lower standby drain)
it look like that is the older version when I order part. The rev B use only one voltage reference and two comparator I see for 5.5uA standby current (from page)
I am trying to add some side light to my flashlight. You seem to have a lot of pretty color led. Can you please share us the part number for the led colors you are using?
green
blue
ice blue
pink
WW
red
CW
orange
yellow
emerald green
purple
I dont think it makes a difference that it’s a D4 but the tolerances for where the LED +/- are may not work for anything but a Noctigon 4XP. I guess YMMV. Maybe Lexel has tested others.
Edit: I see it works on L4P board. Looks less likely to work here:
I wasn’t going to go with an Emisar… have Fireflies E07 on my horizon. If there’s definitely not going to be one of these TIR boards available for the E07, then I may have to shift gears.
technically you dont need to screw down the aux board,
having it simply floating between optics and MCPCB, a few mm up are no problem to get the L4P board soldered,
you could also use some 3mm hole spacers to lift iut but got it screwed down
the E07 has already my board in the stock light, so there is no real need for me to order this board size
with LVP D4S, ROT66 and MF01 aux board from me available
D4 is simply stabilized with LDO, but can be build also without to support low mode
Really nice boards But tbh a lot of this goes over my head!
I disassembled my D4 recently to flash Anduril and found it very tricky to work with given the extremely limited space. I’m not sure I’ll have the skills or patience to take it apart again to add the aux cables. I really like the aux leds in my D4S though so I could be tempted.
The D1 TIR looks interesting as well. Do you have any more info on that?
Any plans to make one for the imminent release of the FW3A?
