The highest it allows is 70 C, and the lowest is 31 C.
For a D4 V2, the sensor can be auto-calibrated by using the factory reset function. Basically just loosen the tailcap, hold the button, then tighten the tailcap. Release the button about 4 seconds later after it makes a bright flash.
Then to get to thermal config mode, the fastest way is 10 clicks from off.
After starting up thermal config mode, the first setting calibrates the sensor, which is probably not necessary if you have ever done a factory reset. If you want to set it manually though, click once per degree C for the current room temperature. Usually this is about 20 clicks.
The second setting configures the limit. Each click takes the limit 1 C above 30. So for 55 C, that would be 25 clicks at the second prompt.
In the stepped ramping mode it is possible to set “Floor”, “Ceiling” and “Number of steps”. But it is possible to set specifically each step with own value? F.e. I want three steps - and first step with 10lm, second with 100lm and third with1000lm… Is it possible?
If there are inconsistencies in the aux LED blink pattern, it probably means the firmware doesn’t have the recent irq-refactor branch yet. There were some race conditions which could sometimes mess up the timing of sleep ticks, and those conditions have been fixed.
That branch also had some unfortunate effects on thermal regulation though, so 0-8-15 and I have been working on rewriting that part of the code.
Sorry if this has been addressed already, but how long will a light with Anduril maintain firmware settings with a battery removed - mainly thinking about the temperature configuration and temperature limit settings. Are these set indefinitely until a factory reset or another configuration is performed? About to get my first light with Anduril (Astrolux HL01).
By “current level” are you referring to the “room temperature” setting - the calibration of the sensor itself? Or are you referring to “mode/light output level”? The latter I don’t care about and would prefer it be “lost”.
According to Atmel, there is less than a 1-in-a-million chance that the light will forget its settings within 100 years, when kept at or below room temperature.
Most config options, including the temperature options, are kept in eeprom… which has an estimated life span of 100+ years regardless of whether the device has power or not.
Any chance Anduril could have an additional feature/shortcut where one could have the Voltage fudge factor configurable, just like the temp calibration and all other configurable features ?
I think it would be easier to have a light's voltage reading adjusted in case you've had a sloppy flash, or you just don't know what dropout your driver has, or simply tolerance between individual components.
Just measure a cell with a decent multi-meter, pop in the cell, go batt voltage chk without loading it and compare - If any difference, go to vff config and adjust, save and Bob's your uncle.
I understand how to calibrate the temperature sensor, and how to set max temperature. But what is supposed to happen when you are running in temperature regulation and then double click to go into to turbo?
I have a new EC01 that I just calibrated and set for a max temperature of 45C (15 clicks).
From a cold start, I ramp to max, then doubleclick to turbo. The light heats up to about 50C using my IR thermometer. The output does decrease and the temperature doesn’t get any higher. Regulation looks good.
Then I doubleclick, putting the light back in turbo. The temperature rapidly climbes to 60C at which point I turn it off as it’s getting too hot to hold.
Does doubleclick bypass the temperature regulation?
