triple mod done by moderator007, my favorite SuperHero
Look what Kal-El just flew in with, from Smallville:
Jetbeam TCR-1 triple dedome LH351D 3500k
400 lumens on 16340
Love it!
Looks just like the golden hour at sunset.

Brain transplants on a batch of Sofirn TK70’s and Convoy H1’s. They all got RampingIOS (D4 V2 UI) via an attiny412. Drops right in place of the stock MCU.
This is what the hobby probably needs more of. Direct-swap MCUs so we can fix the firmware on lights more easily than having to come up with an entire replacement driver.
Of course the next question is: Who is gonna put Anduril on a Zebralight?
+1
The Thrunite T2 UI is really making me hate it. Great form factor but shit UI (IMO) and terrible pocket clip = doesn’t get used.

Dang. By the looks of it I thought the T2 was going to be a sweet light. Guess I didn’t pay any attention to the UI.
UI is standard, waaay better than some on Sofirn or similar brands (and some expenssive).
I like it, at least it has click for ON/OFF and hold for cycle through modes. Nothing wtong with it
Indeed ,Thrunite have one of the best UI, overall its one of the best brands in US and Canada flashlight market ;))

That UI sounds reasonable to me… The problem is, everyone has different tastes, and it’s frequently for me the 100% make-or-break reason to carry (or not) a light. Driver swaps are nice and everything, but there’s only a few of us that are able to swap more than the basic “easily moddable” Convoy-types. When I see a T-shaped driver, or the side-switch on the driver board, or odd driver shapes, or integrated charging, I’m usually out of luck for improving the UI.
Yeah sure mounting a MCU plus adapter-board isn't something everyone can do, but it's definitely a few steps simpler than custom-designing drivers for all the weird crap out there.
But man, so many brands just get it so wrong. Sofirn with its "you can start in moonlight but you can't get there from anywhere else", my Thorfires with their horribly slow, non-linear ramping. A NEBO light I own, which is fortunately not-bright enough that I just leave it on full brightness at all times and deal with it. It's a house-light for the muggles to grab lol. Wuben and Skilhunt keep getting it wrong, although I think Skilhunt is finally getting better on some recent models. Wuben even has two-switch models they couldn't get right!
FW3A w/ 1x Osram Red Flat (as secondary) and 2x Samsung LH351D (as primary) flashed with Anduril 2
Not sure what to think of this one. I don’t like the Mountain PCB with the XQ-E pads for secondary because it makes a hideous looking rorschach test beam (I think it’s a bat). This is definitely better. The Osram beam is pretty even, albeit a little square up close. This is with 10511. The white LH351D is fine with only two, looks round except for the usual spikey edges all triples have. Also wanted to give Anduril 2 a try since I had to reflash this thing anyways, two birds one stone. May try XP-E2 far red to see what a domed beam looks like if I ever take it apart again.
Hideous test setup. 18650 battery holder, separate e switch, alligator clips, etc.
1x7135 trace cut and negative secondary wire (in orange):
MCPCB mods. 2x traces cut and LEDs reversed to create a second negative pad for Osram and common positive for everything else. (keep in mind this will be different for ALL other boards besides LED4Power)
Always clean up

special thanks to staticx57(?)
my next project, this is a perfect walktrough!!!

I hate to derail this thread into a UI discuss, but as much as I love my Wuben TO50R, I don’t pick it up as much as I should because it always takes me a while to remember how to use it. Hold down this button? Nope. Click that one? Nope. Double click the first one? Nope. Argh!
3.2A linear in a AA sized host w/ Anduril2 is not something you just post a video about. This is straight up the pinnacle of modding for this light/size and needs more details
edit; I left it unspoken but lets just put it out there. WELL DONE!
Very nice!
Reminds me… I should go back and redo my Utorch UT01 3 amp linear driver to use the attiny1616 so I can load Anduril2 on it.
Oh, so you made ut1 with anduril? Can you give me some link on PM?
You guys are making me jealous
I have a Manker E11 that could get one of those drivers
Love that light, but the UI is not what I’d desire. But I have no skills to do something similar or whatsoever…
WallKiller: pretty cool
It is possible to get hex file to fw3a from you (Contactcr)? I can’t send you PM (some BLF problems).
And i’ve got some attiny question to you (gchart) can you write me an email, because of this problems?
This is my email: adrian.gwis@gmail.com
The text of that post is a link to the detailed post including an Oshpark link. Hit me up on PM if you want.
Honestly, now that I modded the Sofirn SP10S with Anduril2 and it still retains AA boost functionality, it’s become my go-to AA/14500 light.

Hopefully it will revert in favour of the SP10S BLF Edition, which I thank :face_with_monocle: :partying_face:
The hex file link was in the post between the video and the last pic! Here: google drive link
Or if you want to compile it yourself, the ramp tables: #define RAMP_LENGTH 150#define PWM1_LEVELS 0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0 - Pastebin.com
Thank you so much.
