Post #2.
I try to make another use of the NarsilM firmware driver.
Not working properly still.
After installing the battery, direct light high, and then will not light up again.
7135 using A705NGT-350 SOT-89
Flash firmware on Attiny85
FET 404
85fuses.bat:
REM BOD disabled:

REM BOD enabled at 1.8V:

I'm responding on the NarsilM thread.

I did today a measurement of the beam intensity of this light
measured @5m 2080 Lux cold start
so I get 52000 Lux @1m for the Nichia pre production light
this is just the Luxmeter set to show save max.
starting the light, 3 clicks to highest mode
then move the light a bit to get its peak output
Two big thumbs up!
Is there a likeliness that the driver spring might bend when tightening the battery tube, causing a short? Something similar happened with an Acebeam K70 here: http://www.candlepowerforums.com/vb/showthread.php?436281-Should-I-be-scared-my-Acebeam-K70-might-explode
What do you guys think?
This can not happen with the MF01
I did not show a picture from the driver with the insulator inserted
Basically the platic insulator you see on the carrier here fits inside the insulator on top of the driver the distance between spring and ground is 12.5mm, also there is no ground spring
And the distance between pisitive spring and the ground ring is 12.5mm
Aha, thanks. It’s a plastic ring on the driver side. The picture on the Banggood site showing the three parts, head, battery tube and tailcap, made me worry it might be aluminium.
The EC50 Gen II can hold 1,500 for the duration too, Acebeam really are the daddies.
Can’t wait to see their Nitecore Tip rival.
Well, Lexel pointed out the LED's are 3 sets of 2S3P, so has 3 pairs of wires, 3 separate circuits. So either there's a component failure or maybe loose wire in one of the 3 sets of parts and wires.
Not a loose wire as all 3 banks work at the other 4 levels. I’d look over the driver with a magnifying glass to see if a resistor or some other part was burned or not soldered properly. I don’t know if it uses 7135 current chips, but if it did, it could be a bad one of those on the bank that doesn’t work.
Dunno, I was pretty blinded by the light - I could not make out bumping thru modes. No clue, no description by the poster. Only the lowest mode?
Mine is in the US some where, on the way from west to east...
Lexel - is the MF01.ZIP board a go, and tested? It looks dated August 27th on OSHPark here. I see steel_1024 used an earlier version - seemed ok, not sure.
Let me know - I'd like to order them. Thanks!

Yeah, only on the lowest level.

On Lexels 4th batch page he says he can make them. One other person wanted one, but I think he was looking for at least 3 buyers for Oshpark, because he has to order 3.
No, not interested in an assembled board. Been building dozens of my own, ordered probably about 100 OSHPark boards by now since February 2014.
I've had issues on the 7135 channel on my other high amp 2S cell builds: 16X XHP50 and MT03 with 3 XHP70.2's. Not completely resolved, been getting help from DEL. Dunno if Lexel has built anything true high amps in 2S, meaning maybe 20K lumens and up.

The board from Oshpark is tested and fits the light
The missing ground on switch pad is fixed and C3 and C4 pads added
