It works the same as the smooth ramp, except it only uses the configured steps, and each step is held for about 0.4 seconds. It’s similar to an Olight Baton interface, plus the ability to go down instead of only up. If the button is held, it will keep ramping until the user lets go or until it hits the end of the ramp.
BTW, I’m not clear on what your vote is now. It was AD, but now it sounds like maybe C or None?
Nice! It will be manipulated according the user’s will! :+1:
I suppose that Crescendo is the case you mentioned. I’ve been using it (and like it a lot!!! Thanks TK!!) in a modded light but the auto-reversing is a bit “awkward” specially comparing witrh the Emisar D4 UI. It takes longer to get used to.
This said, I guess that sometimes it is harder to see when the top is reached, not the bottom. And that was the reason why I posted C and D as my options. The highest luminosity seems harder to control or to “eye-measure” than the lowest.
I still think that the blinks make sense to avoid pressing the button like there was no tomorrow and to mark some points while ramping.
This might be the only thing why I wold add the B mark, to know what to expect in terms of battery, as the highest regulation surely implies more drain than the 1st 7135 limit.
Still, so far I maintain my suggestion C and D.
Also, I have one question. Would the passage from full regulation to FET work as in the Emisar D4, meaning: after passinf that limit, and depending on the use LEDs that will be used, is it probable to see a “tint shift”? I have the D4 with XP-G2 S4 3D and I experience that “shift”. Don’t know how others react, and also don’t know it is supposed to expect that change on the new setting, after the regulation passage.
Please ignore my question if it is nonsense :innocent: And thanks again for the work done so far.
Optical programming seems the most promising. But a lot of work and time.
I want that in a later premium edition of the FW3A with 90 CRI Nichia LEDs not now
A sunrise mode, please no. I think it’s to hard to set with the lamp. And the µC cant sleep.
Hmm, I’ll keep that in mind in case the diagram ships with the light. For now though, the .svg file is in the repository, and should work in Inkscape (free, runs on several OSes).
Not sure I’m familiar with negative voting. Can you just run raw numbers of for an option next to it? Also if people cannot stop at B and C, what will it accomplish? And force stopping would not be desirable I don’t think.
Using my D4, I don’t feel it has to be perfectly on the blink. I like the reference point because the human eye is terrible at judging brightness-
I frequently can’t tell if my Skilhunt H03 (last mode memory) is on medium (70lm) or high (160lm) until I cycle through the modes. The difference in modes is 10hours vs 5 hours runtime.
