removed Astrolux C8 Silver (I only add flashlights with different housing materials, not different colors => with the exception of a 'bare' aluminum version)
Hi Sam! Just wanted to inform you that I linked this thread in the ANDURIL USER MANUAL thread as many people were inquiring for a list of Anduril lights. Hope that is ok. Figured it was best to send them here so they could find what they were looking for.
Some of these lights are missing Anduril features. For example, one feature I really like is the manual memory. But the Astrolux EC01 does not have it. Why do the manufacturers do this? Maybe a “Pure Anduril” notation is needed to indicate those lights that won’t leave the purchaser unpleasantly surprised.
Manual memory was added over the summer. Anything made before that won’t have it.
Also, I have no idea how the EC01 was made. I wasn’t involved at all, and don’t know what they used.
As a general guideline, if a light doesn’t have a build target in the code repository, it’s not really supported. It typically means that I wasn’t involved and whoever made it didn’t send code upstream. As long as the code is available from the distributors, it’s not a license violation… but it’s still not exactly playing nice.
In the case of the EC01, it doesn’t appear to be following the license. Banggood’s page for it has a link to the upstream source code, but I don’t see any way to get the actual code they used on the EC01 itself. So at a glance it looks like a license violation. A lot of people seem to completely misunderstand what open-source means, and break the license without realizing it. I suppose I should add that to my todo list… anyone know who was involved in making it?
After the S41/42 performance & ui and some other QC issues I’ve heard about (not sure if true) I didn’t want their lights. And now this. Steering clear.
Thanks so much for compiling this list, Sam. Can you please add a link for the Emisar D4SV2 in the OP? The current link for the D4S doesn’t display the correct UI guide. Not sure how to post a picture to this site without hosting it myself so here’s the link to Hank’s page with the correct UI guide.
