This is my favorite and most used light I’ve ever bought by far (granted, I only have about 20). Thank you DBSAR and Sofirn.
:+1: 
I have over $1k in w30, BLF GT’s, BLF GT90’s. that have been used maybe a dozen times. …. The $100 I spent on the 2 BLF LT1’s is the best $ spent cause I use them every day! thanks DBSAR and LT1 team!!
I’ve been wanting that too… and considering how to redo it so the sunset mode would be configurable. The main difficulty is finding a convenient place to fit it into the UI without colliding with other functions. I’m thinking they could ramp to the desired brightness, do some button clicks, and it would turn on a timer like what happens in candle mode. Repeat the clicks to make the timer longer. Not sure about the details, though.
I’ve also been thinking about how to rewrite muggle mode to make it better, and enable it by default so new users have a simple mode until they decide they want more. The general idea is to remove “muggle mode” entirely, and instead have sort of an overlay which blocks access to advanced features. The user could remove the restrictions by doing a a button click sequence, something which would be difficult to do by accident.
So it would be in the “normal UI” by default, and reset to normal mode after each factory reset… and it would work pretty much like a “normal” flashlight. But if the user bothers to read the manual, they could enable the “advanced UI” to get the full feature set.
I might also do some other changes which break backward compatibility, and rename the firmware to “Anduril2” or something. There have been a bunch of things I’ve wanted to change but haven’t because of compatibility… but perhaps I can change those all at once.
We’ve been looking into the feasibility of adding a third power channel for red, in addition to the warm white and cool white LEDs. It sounds like it’s relatively straightforward to do in terms of the driver and the firmware. If it happens, I’d implement it as an extension to the tint ramp, or perhaps a red/white toggle… so it would still work in every UI mode, and would simply be a different “tint”. Like, if you ramp all the way to the warm end of the ramp and keep holding the button long enough, it would go into red mode.
TK,
If Apple can tell the world “Hey we’re changing the OS. So adapt or die. And buy all new software to get things done.”
And when they move to the next CPU format, it’s going to happen again - Big Time.
So - I’ve got no problems with a new Anduril 2.0.
All the Best,
Jeff
I could totally get onboard with that, thanks.
Does Sofirn have any plans to sell the lens and ledboard individually?
Just got one of the JBL speaker cases from Amazon to pack my LT1 in. $10.
Fits along with the cable and a USB power adapter. It’s a little loose at the bottom of the lantern end. I might add a piece of foam eventually.

Now I wait for a RED one.
All the Best,
Jeff
Oh, I like that. Mine’s been riding around in my backpack unprotected, and I don’t really like it. That speaker case looks absolutely perfect.
The case I got from Sofirn in the kit is also made for the JBL speaker, but interior isn’t as nice with the bubbled padding. Cables and extra washers fit with the same dividers. Added some extra foam over the cloth lining.$5.00 if bought with the kit.
Does anyone know if the Amazon Canada LT1 is the latest 5.0 Version?
If this happens, can it please use “photo red” (670nm) or even “cherry red” (700nm) deep red LED wavelengths?
Just got my Zebralight H502pr the other day and the 670nm makes such a difference over the usual orangey hue (630nm) of most ‘red’ LEDs.
I mean, it’s ideal for avoiding insects while out camping, but it’s also beautiful!
Mine, 5 weeks old, is 5.0 .
I ordered one on June 20 and it was the 5.0 version.
Just bought a red one from Amazon UK. Available in black and blue as well for £7.99.
What a great find, perfect fit, could have been made for the lantern and has room for cable storage at the end.
Is there any ETA for a shade for this light?
Here are some shades I made from ‘collapsible, silicone dog bowls’ for my LT1 and Zanflare T1 lanterns. The bowls were originally only $2/ea on eBay last year but I think they might be a little more now. They work great and I cant imagine my lanterns without them.
Great idea! I got a red/yellow/white/black set for $10
Yeah, I was not confident, I’d like a tan or orange version. I waited to buy both for the chance at colors and to give others the ability to get theirs.
The response I got was (paraphrased): “We are selling them direct from our website, we have new old stock with the USB-C known issue that you can buy for $48, or with batteries for $57.”
I went ahead and ordered a couple. One is already spoken for by a neighbor who wanted hurricane prep lights and came to me for advice. Deity knows when they will come in.
What is the usb-c issue?
