Do yo know, In Which flashlight this chips used?
The one I have in my hand right now - a modded Eagle Eye X1R, 18350 right angle/headlamp. gchart has a couple more, not sure if anyone else.
Only in modders hands for now, til manufacturers can get on-board, thread here: https://budgetlightforum.com/t/-/55911
I'll have a few more soon - parts/boards are on their way.
I'm unsure about where to post this, but I guess I'll ask it here. I'm rebuilding an old Sky Ray King I've had kicking around for years, and I would like to use Anduril. The driver I'm using is one of the Texas Avengers boards (46mm) so it's a 3 channel driver. My problem is that I can't seem to get it to switch over the FET direct drive mode (turbo). And which one of the hex files from here would be the most compatible with this driver?

This is the driver in question:
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
kelsey - Not sure how much you know. The TA driver is 3 channels, so you need a 3 channel hwdef file, and the pin # assignments of each channel are important. Not sure if any stock Anduril2 hwdef files support that driver, maybe, not sure.
Are you building a Anduril2 HEX file or do you need one, or did you use one? Which one?
I’ve compiled a few drivers to HEX before but I don’t really know what I’m doing. A pre-compiled HEX file would be great, but I’m not familiar with any of the lights and their drivers in that database so I’ve just tried random files. I imagine that code compiled for a triple channel driver would work? Or how do I make it compile so it will work on my end?
I might add that I’ve been trying Narsil as well. Would that be better?
Not all 3 triple channel drivers will work because some use different I/O pins than others. There's 5 basic I/O pins
Two Channels (maybe originated with the Q8):
- Pin #2 - typically the e-switch
- Pin #3 - typically the AUX/switch LED
- Pin #5 - 7135
- Pin #6 - FET
- Pin #7 - not used, or if it's a 2S battery driver, then there's a voltage divider circuit on this pin used to read the battery voltage level
For 3 channels, it's tricky because there wasn't a standard established. I'm not sure offhand how TA used the I/O pins. Might need a custom hwdef file, not sure. I'm not home so can't check right now.
At home I could probably do the research and build you an Anduril2 HEX file for that driver, or if someone else can. Best to post on the Anduril2 thread.
Is it a documented feature or a bug in Anduril that if the ramping mode setted to smooth ramping, and the lamp is in locked mode, the 1h lowmoon and the 2h highmoon, while it setted to stepped ramping, the locked mode is 1h highmoon and the 2h lowmoon?
That’s a documented feature. 1H is floor of current ramp style, 2H floor of other ramp style.
It has changed with Anduril 2: 1H is lowest floor, 2H is other floor or manual memory if enabled.
Maybe I was ambiguous. It’s Anduril 2.
1. Power on the light than set to smooth ramp (3c).
2. Power off.
3. 4c to lockout.
4. Now 1h lowest floor and 2h other floor.
5. 4c to unlock.
6. Power on the light than set to stepped ramp (3c).
7. Power off.
8. 4c to lockout.
9. Now 1h other floor and 2h lowest floor.
The 2 floor state swapped. Is this a(n) (un)documented feature or a bug?
I cannot reproduce your issue with Anduril 2. 1H is lowest floor, 2H is highest floor. Doesn’t matter which ramp style is selected. 1H is always lowest.
Here’s the code if you want to verify it: https://bazaar.launchpad.net/~toykeeper/flashlight-firmware/anduril2/view/head:/ToyKeeper/spaghetti-monster/anduril/lockout-mode.c
Both of my Anduril lamps behave the same way every time. Emisar D4SV2 and Astrolux FT02S. The code you linked means nothing to me, I’m not a programmer. Thanks for your confirmation of your lamp behaviour.
The FT02S does not ship with Anduril 2 - how did you install it on there?
Maybe it’s my mistake but I was for sure it has Anduril 2. Does it have Andruil 1? I’ve never flashed anything. But the two flashlights have the same behaviour, settings and options (and maybe the same bug).
Ahh, ok. Think the D4SV2 is not shipping with it either, yet - not many lights are.
Thank you for clarifying it! The question is still open, is it a feature or bug in Andruil? Any other lights with Andruil behave the same way as D4S V2 and FT02S?
Just tried it. SC31pro, probably andy1:
ramped, 1H=firefly, 2H=low
stepped, 1H=low, 2H=firefly
Dunno if that does anything for ya, but confirms the eerie behavior.
Thank you Lightbringer!
After Tom E mentioned it’s not Andruil2, I opened TK’s Anduril … 2? topic and found this in the change list:
Lockout mode’s momentary function always uses lowest brightness first.
So after all i think it’s a planned difference between smooth and stepped ramp’s lockout mode.
I hope you have read my post where I explained that this is the expected behavior in Anduril 1 and that it has changed with Anduril 2. 
Yeah, i’ve read it just interpreted in other way, sry 
1 Thank
Where can this be found?
