Regarding guppy FW, you can disable the stepdown by: after tapping 30 times to enter the menu, tapping before the light turns on in turbo. I remember this being in the description at some point, but it’s not now, so this is from my recollection.
Regarding the H17F FET, it is smaller than on normal FET drivers so has more resistance, like 30mOhms instead of 5-10mOhms.
Been following this thread for sometime and have really enjoyed the Dr Jones FW’s
Recently did an upgrade to my Mac Tri-EDC (changed to XP-L HI) with this H17F driver and Lucidrv2. Now pushing out some crazy output.
In the past I used the masterfully crafted Hyperion driver and UI by Mattaus, who I’ve had the pleasure of working with in the past. He put together a great cheat sheet that I referred to endlessly during learning the UI.
Lucidrv2 is just as good, if not better, and I needed to make a cheat sheet for that too. So here it is. LUCIDRV2 Cheat Sheet
Got a flashlight with this driver, it’s really wonderful !!
Is it possible to add another mode caused by 3 quick clicks?
I see one mode caused by 2 quick clicks, I put a turbo on it, and I would like another 3 click mode so that I can put a strobe on it. Otherwise, constantly have to think and choose when configuring - double-click on a turbo or strobe.
If I put the turbo on the last mode in ascending order, then if I suddenly need it urgently, and I am in firefly mode, then the extra seconds of sorting the mode can be very expensive.
It’s still my favorite edc firmware for 7 years now. I prefer 4 light levels, and most drivers are 3 or 5. I’m using it with a forward clicky, but would love to try the firmware in a reverse action light. hint hint Simon.
The double tap it to get to the position you want to change. 8 taps to configure menu. 3 taps is the brightness ramp. Tap once when brightness you desire has been reached.
I am not sure it won’t give you bright light, before going to low light, if you double tap from off.
I hate to revive an old thread, but what is the difference between the blue and purple boards? And if it isnt the same question, the difference between a H17f and a H17fx?
