Update 1/06/22:12 Groups Driver is currently in production and should be available within 2 weeks!
Simon is looking into getting the 12 groups firmware onto the Red LED driver for my store, would anyone else have an interest instead of the 20% & 100% modes currently on it?. I sell to hunters for mounting on their rifles and the 20% level is far too dim and the 100% level can be way too intense for under 100m with the C8+, even worse for the longer range L21B. Currently the L21B with red osram can’t be used on anything less than 250-300m otherwise the deer take off.
I had previously asked for the Ramping UI, but I think the 12 groups would be more popular with others. The pro with the Ramping UI is hunters being able to set a custom level and then it’s basically on/off at your set level.
I just used the red osram for coyote hunting. My friends liked it so much that we have ordered 3 more. Great light but more mode options would be great.
It would good for the CSLNM1 red driver to be consistent in UI with other S2+ 12 group/Biscotti.
Not sure if I would personally justify replacing my existing S2+ with CSLNM1 red though, as I tend to allow the thermal regulation to do its thing anyway.
YES. Please put the 12 group firmware on the driver for red LED’s! Currently I’m using an 8x7135 driver instead of the dedicated red driver just so that I can have the 12 group firmware.
I was all set to grab a C8+ and S2+ with red emitters, but changed my mind when I saw they only had 20% and 100% output modes.
I would definitely be interested again if they were to come with a 12 group driver.
The 7135 driver limits the current though, you could use a 1V LED with it and it’d be fine.
The voltage (curve) of the LED is current dependant, not vice versa.
Oh ok. You might be right (probably you are). I’m not much into electronics nor i like understand them. Can solder some but that’s it. Why i was so specific about V and A is the fact red emitter needs lower Volts to work correctly. No idea how Nanjg works…
