First of all, thank you for all of your hard work bringing us these awesome U/Is!
I love anduril and have gotten really used to it but would still love to see you offer a second version. We would get used to it pretty quickly im sure.
I havent yet read through all the comments so I dont know if this has been mentioned.
Could we pretty please have a simple version of anduril that:
1) Is always automatically locked out after turning off? Unlock would be a double click, which also turns it on to a level you can choose. Always just a double click to turn on the light. This will solve all accidental turn ons and eliminate so many button presses for theose who use lockout regularly. (Another way of putting is is one click is batt check, 2 clicks turns on light to memorized mode)
2) Still has quick, easy access to full brightness?
This would be achieved by using the following:
From off:
•One click would give a moonlight level bat check and would be a notice that light is locked out.
Holding the button down (1h) from off/when locked out, is momentary, as usual.
Double click turns on to your last used mode.
1 click + 1hold (is that called 2h?) turns on to moonlight.
•3 short clicks, instead of being batt check from off, goes to top of ramp.
•3 click +1hold goes to strobe.
•4 clicks from off goes straight to turbo.
From on:
•One click turns off.
•Double click toggles between turbo and memorized mode.
•3 clicks to toggle stepped /smooth ramping just like old anduril.
•2 clicks +1 hold= tint ramping just like old anduril.
All other functions gone, or in a more advanced u/i that is hard to access.
I dont like lights that have a hard to access buttons like in zebralights. Though they are nice for keeping the light from turning on accidentally, they are hard for my fat fingers to operate easily when there are multiple button presses needed, especially when cold and/ or when wearing gloves (which is the case alot here in the icebox of Colorado) so that’s why I like the fw series so much. But the accidental turn ons are an hourly thing with me if I dont lock out. Its a little tedious having to click 5 times each time i want to use the light (quad click to lock or unlock,+ one click to either turn on or off, plus another to adjust brightness if neccessary. Thats alot of clicking every time I want to use my light (which is alot, every day).
