So I’m wondering what kind of current this thing draws. Sony VTC6 would be the best option? I haven’t bought cells for mine yet, but seems like it only takes unprotected.
Earlier today I ordered a Fireflies ROT66 flashlight from the Fireflies website using Pay Pal to pay. I have received no email order confirmation from Fireflies. The payment on Pay Pal site is in some sort of limbo - it says: “This is a temporary authorization to make sure your payment method will cover the payment. Your payment method will be charged when * completes your order.”
a short view on optional gear that likely will be added to next batch, easy to install if just used with the LED+ and a screw to connect it to battery
or connect the positive to the indicator LED output (before the resistor)
each of the 3 LED rings has a trimmer for brightness adjustment
low battery and shut down voltage can be adjusted if I build them
of course I will be making those in custom colors, production from fireflies will be likely only one option
The used LDO and Microchip have a very low standby draw of about 50uA, LEDs can be build in different max. brightness settings
