But Simon sells biscotti drivers with less chips too, there may be some left of those with wrong firmware. I can get answers in the form of ‘probably’ and ‘mine seems fine, bought then and then’, but a year ago i bought 12 drivers, all with wrong firmware, and I would really like to be certain if I buy 10+ drivers again.
I totally understand that…
Sorry, I can’t help you more than saying “mine are fine…”
I just looked on Simon’s site,and there is a 7135x3,4,6 or 8 driver with ‘new firmware’.It has the ui map,so i presume it is Biscotti.Convoy .Hope it’s the right one.
It is ‘new firmware’ as in: now biscotti firmware vs formerly the 3/5 mode firmware. But it does not mention the fixed vs non-fixed biscotti (because that would imply that there was a non-fixed biscotti for sale before which does not look good as a seller). I think that Simon decided that the firmware with wrong fuse-settings was good enough, and at that point it is essential not to mention anything wrong.
I bought them from BG (8x 7135) and had to wait several times when they were out of stock.
How do i figure out if i have one with the wrong software fuse?
Got it,sorry.I was going to suggest ordering 1 to see,but there is a minimum order qty of 2!
I don’t think it’s just a simple matter of wrong fuses in the firmware. It think it’s a hardware issue. As a result, TK’s original Biscotti and its derivatives no longer work correctly with the driver. It’s a mess. Even if you order the “new firmware” or red Biscotti drivers straight from Convoy Store, there’s no guarantee the driver will work correctly, unless maybe it’s the clear C8 from old stocks.
Goshdogit! That’s really nice work! Beautiful with the colors on em. 
Really nice looking! :+1:
Very nice Goshdogit!
Looking sharp!
I see Jos inspired some people by sharing the ‘foybezel’
Also the vinyl touch is wonderful!
Hopefully i’ll be able to foybezel some of my lights soon.
What the origin of the name ‘Foybezel’?
Goshdogits lights look very nice but there is a disadvantage with the flat bezel: you don’t notice when the light is still on after placing it on the head. Well, actually you will notice somewhat later when you smell the smoke … 
Foy is a BLF member (who has not logged in for years now) who was famous for his very enjoyable style of posting, and for his love for Solarforce flashlights. He did not like strike bezels and started to flatten them, claiming the proces in general by calling it Foybezeltm :party:
Cool, thanks!
Thanks everyone! I really like the look of the Q8 with the flat bezel.
I sanded one as a test and immediately thought, “Dang, now I gotta do the other two.” :laughing:
Very true! My friend, who also owns a Q8, had a similar reaction:
“Very refined, but if you set it face down, you won’t know it’s on until it burns a hole into the center of the earth.”
My other scorchers, a D4 and two Meteors, have flat bezels. Besides, I tailstand my lights. 
I’m still trying to do that …
Touché!
Foy was probably most notably known for his unique sign offs, he’d run everything together with no spaces between words. And he gave his “Foy Approved!” on his favorites.
WemissyouFoy!
I’ve considered doing something similar with my stainless bezel lights but oddly have never seen it mentioned until now. What’s the best process to keep it nice, smooth, and even?
Lathe.
