Fireflies PL09MU new E21A 21700 flash light from Fireflies

Just got firefly PL09mu what a great light one question though I think the andruil is a very stripped down version there are no blinky function or any other in-depth menu functions except strobe and battery indicator anyone else experiencing this please reply

I don’t have anything genuinely useful other than maybe a couple possible obvious things.

Have you tried the loosened-battery-cap-twist-press-hold-to-on reset?

Also, could it possibly be Anduril 2 and it’s maybe just in Simple mode?

That’s all I could think of really.

+1 on Mix tint

Hey lojik thanks but yea I tried both andruil 1&2 sequences did factory reset everything I could but all it has is strobe and battery check im really confused if you hear anything else please let me know and I’ll do the same

Ok, sorry I wasn’t more help. Figured it was worth a try if it hadn’t been done yet is all.

I really appreciate it I’m kinda new at this needed a new hobbie so any help is good help thanks again

Twist the cap off, leave it a few seconds and tighten it back.

From off, do ten clicks and hold untill the light flashes.

I think your problem is that you’re stuck in simple mode.

No matter how many times I do factory reset 10 clicks hold the light never indicates that the mode switched it does nothing I am stumped

Mine has an abbreviated program fyi.

Thank you for the heads up. As far as you can tell, what disappeared in the abbreviation?

I should’ve looked earlier, FF included with the box came an abbreviated operations/diagram instructions.
Step ramping
smooth ramping
turbo
Battery check
Strobe’s
Lock out
Aux off low high blinking
are all the features noted

Oh so this is a more muggle friendly version of the Nov-Mu AND of Anduril. Kinda like a new cross between simple mode and advanced. Good to know. Thank you for confirming it with the included manual.

Thanks for the explanation but I’m a little bummed this was my first endevour to the enthusiast flashlight world and the”FF” definitely wasn’t advertised I guess I’ll just have to buy another lol… P.S. still an awesome light though

Does the light accidently switch on?
I tend to carry in a pocket full of junk :slight_smile:

Are there reviews of this light. I don’t care for lumens above 1000, but I’m a stickler for high efficiency flooders with a spotless beam.

No the light doesn’t accidentally turn on haven’t had that problem besides you can lock it out via 4 clicks or 1/4 turn on tail cap its a great flooder excellent color rendering

Can you do 15 clicks from Off and check what is the Anduril version (if it does run Anduril)?

I’m guessing this may be Anduril 2, and after a factory reset, Anduril 2 will be in the Simple UI mode which has the more advanced features Disabled (ie. only Battery-voltage Check, but no Strobe modes)

In case it is Anduril 2 with Simple UI, then do 10H (from Off, do 10 clicks but the last click should be a “hold” (do not release, until the light blinks once), This will set it to Advanced UI where the other features like Strobe are then enabled.

Anduril UI made specifically for this light it is a simplified version its not anduril 2 either it has one strobe function but the rate is adjustable by ramp up or down if you want full anduril version the light will have to be flashed. I tried factory reset multiple times its permanently set to a more simple version

Thanks for the quick response!

Any idea if this model can be updated to the regular Anduril 1 or Anduril 2? Does this light have flashing pad/points for updating firmware?

Yes it does have the flashing pad and can be updated

Which build should I flash, if I would want to?
