All look fantastic, ice blue and or orange and yellow are my favorites from these photos anyway. Very awesome project so far, great work!
Sure hope this has USB charging also, if not then let’s get a quick follow up for second light with a larger battery option with that onboard charging built in please.
Yes, Hank uses rgb’s but Wurkkos is, so far at least, planning to use single color leds like Fireflies does. I would love to see rgb’s used in this case!
Main thing the Aux should have is the ability to set them to high, low or off inside Anduril2.
My Emisar D4V2 lights look beautiful with full brightness on Aux, but I find that to be impractical. They are bright enough to light up my room at night and have significant parastic drain. On the other hand, the low brightness aux LED setting is perfect. Just bright enough to easily find the light when used as a bedside light.
You guys have to remember that this light is aimed at around 20USD.
RGB aux cost more and need more space. RGB literally means 3x LED and resistors and what not on the board to make them work.
You have to frankly come to terms with the fact that because of cost and space issues Wurkkos will most likely just produce one AUX colour for the whole batch. So choose wisely
I doubt it would make much difference in cost really.
And I would guess that managing several SKUs would actually cost more.
Is the reason because you’re using a SOIC-8 Attiny85 ? (not enough pins for FET+7135 and RGB), if that’s the case then use a QFN-20 package, or you could even go Attiny1616 which has several advantages : it’s cheaper, has a factory calibrated temperature sensor, UDPI (only 3 pads needed for flashing, especially practical in the case of a small diameter driver here) and plenty enough pins for RGB. Sofirn sourced them for the SP10S Pro so I assume that wurkkos can too.

I’d love to see multiple colours available like in the original run of the E07. I think they had red, ice blue, purple and yellow? Something like that would be excellent. More often than not I’d prefer one colour rather than loads to choose from. I only mess around with my D4V2’s aux lights (and previously D4SV2’s) because they’re there. If they weren’t it wouldn’t be a big deal, ya know?
