▶ Flashlights with BLF User Interfaces - Master List ◀

Cool :THUMBS-UP:

Added a link to here from my Flashlight User Interface Cheatsheets Thread.

Cometa?

BTW, the S42 lights doesn’t use any version of a BLF UI.

The upcoming Astrolux MF-01s (and 01 mini ?) will be using Andril.

Nice list! Thank you for putting it up together :+1:

Nice to know this thread :+1:
Tq for the completed list…

I’ve heard from Simon convoy’s thread, he had been mention “crescendo” in his future light design…

Very useful list :+1:

Emisar D4 now has Anduril or RampOS.

Sofirn Q8 has NarsilM 1.0.

Thanks, good choice from Simon :BEER:

Thank you, I've missed out that one. List is updated :BEER:

Great info. :smiley:

Thanks!
Though I wish there is some more user input to make it more comprehensive ...

I think the very fluid nature and the many revisions of each light make it interesting but also difficult to collect input.
For example, unless I flashed the firmware myself, I would have no idea which version is on each flashlight. A user could check all the lights and write down features or compare them to a U/I sheet…

Hi acab! Thank you for your input!

As one can see, I don't believe it's difficult to collect all the flashlights containing BLF members firmware (and I will do my best to keep maintaining it). Pointing to their many revisions is indeed another thing as you say it, but that’s not the main purpose of this thread. It’s all about listing ALL the flashlights containing BLF firmwares @ one easy to reach place and for easy reference. I just want to make this list as comprehensive as possible :D

Tom E makes it a bit easier with his Narsil firmware, as he is using version numbers and even has a build in version check into the flashlights itself. ToyKeeper on the other hand has the easy following up going on, with her amazing work in the firmware repository on launchpad.

Although I think this list is as good as complete (for now), the only person that can really tell for sure is ToyKeeper herself.

Thanks for clarifying - with that information I believe it should be feasible to complete this.

Offtopic:

As far I learned to know, Astrolux started as an in-house budget priced flashlight brand at the Banggood store. Their first flashlights where being produced by Manker. These days their flashlight are being produced by Mateminco, a trademark of manufacturer Dongguan Tongming Lighting Technology Co., Limited
It could very well be that this is also the same manufacturer for the Manker flashlights.

Question: are people from this BLF community being involved in creating the Astrolux brand/flashlights? Can someone elaborate on this? I just like to know :D

Thanks - useful post, including the firmware flashing links in the same place is great.

My pleasure ;)

As for having the firmware flashing links in the same place, that is also part of the purpose of this thread. I have a strange feeling easy flashing new/updated firmwares is going to be the thing For All Of Us in the near future. Saying that, it would also be very nice to have a true BLF FlashKit, containing all the parts needed for firmware flashing onto our beloved flashlights :D

f.e. the BLF HQ ProgKey is very promising!
