Interested to know the “real world” sustained lumens for this light?
Ok, thats really bad for me. I ordered at 30.01 and ive got only a Paypal Confirmation. Yes i also checked Spam folder every Day….
And i Emailed him Twice for an Update………no reply. On the Website my Status is since 30.1 only “PAID”
What can i do???
First time ordering from China?
Total shipping times up to and more than a month are not unusual and especially now with CNY coming up everybody needs to chill a little bit. 
Not really. I have a lot of Orders from Hank ect and there was never a Problem with Communication. I got every single Time my Order Confirmation and Tracking :+1:
guesing around 1100. based on box graphic + lm/w charts i’ve seen.
edit: after testing, it gets pretty warm after 20 mins on the 1100 lumen setting, but didn’t look like it dimmed.
Just reviewing it now, for starters do I call it FireFlyLite or Fireflies? Secondly the UI is gash, but at least I can turn the light off from Turbo as Toykeeper wants to remove that option too. The Noctigon Anduril II UI puts it to shame. It’s very very powerful though and the tint is sublime.
The light is difficult to program as you don’t know what you’re releasing the light at after 9 taps and hold, Toykeeper has butchered programming too, the light flickers the lowest level.
The only thing I like about Anduril II is that it is difficult for muggles to accidentally enter a programming mode. I don’t like how you can’t double click twice to enter turbo. You need to to ramp to top of ramp then double click to turbo. Need to complain to Toykeeper to make it easier to enter turbo. Other than that these new lights are amazingly powerful. I think most people still call it Fireflies.
Which light and emitter are you testing?
Toykeeper claimed it’s what the manufacturers wanted (obviously not Noctigon and Astrolux who have shunned Toykeeper’s horrible vision of Anduril)
I’m testing the 4500K NOV-MU and believe it or not the throw is exceptional. It punches out there by brute force. It measures no where near the claimed 5200 lumens.
The light and box are labelled Fireflies the user manual only mentions Fireflylite. I was told they couldn’t use Fireflies anymore.
That’s strange, are you testing it with the 22430, or with a decent 21700? On the FireFlies 22430 battery, I’m getting around 3500 lm at turn on. With a Vapcell T50, that jumps up to ~5900 lm at turn on (with a maukka-calibrated lumen tube) and then started stepping down after 20 seconds or so due to heat. Hopefully I’ll have the full review (over at 1lumen.com) done in the next week or so.
What did you measure? With a 40T, I measured 5,155 lumens at 2sec from startup using my TA lumen tube calibrated with maukka lights. 95% of the time my measurements are below manufacturer specs and also lumen tubes measure flood lights lower so getting 5,155 lumens in a 5,200 lumens rated lights is amazing. My Noctigon KR4 mule w/ 16x 4500k E21A measured 3,578 with gray bezel and 3,879 with stainless steel bezel.
You can configure the ramp to have Turbo at the ceiling and it will behave like Anduril I basically. 7 clicks while on, hold the 7th until the second blink, release, click once while it’s buzzing, wait, done.
I’m sure TK did the changes for a reason and you should curb your negativity towards her. Anduril and Anduril II only exist because of her and Tom. Can you write a better firmware?
Seriously, who are you?
I’m not a brown nose like thee.
I can envisage a better UI that’s for sure and I’m not malleable.
It’s not that simple because then it enters turbo at the end of the ramp and there is no shortcut for the max regulated output anymore.
I also don’t like this change, the rest is good IMO.
Rule #1
@chouster agreed! thanks for speaking up
I’ll say, I think Anduril2 is great… when configured correctly. Sure, I prefer some customizations (such as double click for turbo which is a simple config setting). And that’s the beauty of open source. Don’t like it? Change it. And thankfully loneoceans put programming pads on these new drivers so it’s pretty easy. I think the Simple UI goes a long way to making Anduril(2) more useable for non-enthusiasts.
Tbh I have 5 Biscotti flashlights that keep resetting to the miserable default UI, I kinda prefer a bad ass light out of the box, all I changed on Anduril 1 was the thermal calibration which was usually very close anyway.
Yes. As someone that enjoys a full-featured UI, I believe you. However, there are lots of people out there that won’t buy an Anduril light because it’s too complex. That’s why Anduril2 with the default Simple UI exists. And users like us are why there’s an Advanced UI in Anduril2.
Very well but even the Adanced UI for us is being butchered. Extra taps for calibration and difficulty in releasing at chosen calibration, i.e 3 blinks to Calibrate number of steps, my NOV-MU only blinks twice! And only being able to access Turbo after ramping to max, get out of here!!! Ok there is a momentary turbo but who the hell is in the middle of a dark forest with a flashlight turned off. Even in a tent hearing a strange noise outside you’ll want to start on a lower level first so you don’t blind yourself or others.
Simple UI is still too powerful for muggles so you have to learn how to program a lower level which kinda doesn’t make it a simple level.
Tbh an Andúril flashlight was about ramping and power, now it starts in stepped mode by default and Turbo is all but defunct.
If TK makes it impossible to turn the light off from Turbo, which some of TK’s creepy brown noses back up, this once legendary UI will be finished.
I don’t have any of the issues with Anduril 2 that you’re always going on about. I had zero difficulty programming any of my Anduril lights, which have all been upgraded to Anduril 2. The changes to turbo are a preference. You may not like it but many others do, including the person who wrote the software. It has nothing to do with brown nosing. You are just taking your frustration about tiny issues out on others for seemingly no reason.
It’s open source software. If you don’t like it, change it. Complaining about it day in and day out doesn’t do anybody any good.
Is there any source for the config files of the new FF models (NOV-MU, E12R, T9R, T1R)? Maybe I overlooked something but I failed to find them here:
