Might be better to have a separate thread for the pro version. Maybe an admin can split this topic into 2 at few posts back and create a new pro specific thread?
Interesting that youāre reporting the same settings and emitter difference. I can imagine they switch to a new reel/bin once, but twice in a very short period of timeā¦ unlikely. Mine seem to have a slightly different tint, but havenāt done any proper comparisons due to having too much to do already. In any case itās curious.
Btw, a word of caution. These suffer from the same charge problem as the HS10. After the runtime test I put it on the charger and saw it charges at just under 950mA. Sofirn rates their batteries at 750mA max. May or may not be an actual issue, but it is ~25% over their own specified limit.
Edit:
Current measurement: just under 3,5A on turbo with included Sofirn battery @4,18V
Just an observation, the SC10 Pro button indicator light changes brightness, when the light is ON above 75 Lumens:
I donk know if there is a meaning to that change in button output.
One thing Im really happy about, is there are NO double blinks anywhere in the ramp on the SC21 Proā¦
about charging, it works great!
The charging rate tapers down as voltage rises:
and the green charged indicator lights up reliably, above 4.1v, and charging stops:
pocket clip works great too!
I put some shrink tubing on the ears, and it goes on without damage, and holds nice and tightā¦ the clip is a nice deep carry configurationā¦ I like it!
Has anyone contacted sofirn to see if sofirn will reflash existing lights to anduril 2?
Description specifically says anduril 2. Maybe no compatible firmware hence anduril 1? Was planning on ordering with sp10 pro when sp10 pro in stock but now Iām hesitant
For the benefit of others I would emailed sofirn. Itās false advertising. Of course I doubt itās malicious, knowing sofirn itās probably a case of copy-pasting and not proofreading.
At the very least it would encourage them to update their stock descriptions.
I donāt want to open any dispute asking for a replacement/refund because I donāt want them to lose the money. An exchange is fine but I donāt know how they are going to work it out.
Hank solved the Muggle-Mode bug issue by creating a flashing tool and selling it to existing customers of the D4V2 at self-cost. Iād welcome that also for solving the SP10 Pro firmware bug (though I personally donāt mind and have not openend a case with Sofirn, but am rather grateful they produced it).
While Anduril 2 is better, Anduril 1 is still quite good. Finding either Anduril 1 or 2 on a low-cost budget light is impressiveā¦ and probably a far better UI than what most budget lights come with.
Cracked open my SC21 Pro to do an emitter swap and removed the driver. Itās also glued, but a short time with a heat gun made short work of it.
Itās running what looks like an ATTiny1616, and comparing the flashing pads and where the pinouts from the controller connects, this is what the pinout looks like as far as I can tell:
Now thatās interesting! I had heard that they were planning on using the attiny1616 for the SC21 Pro, but then Barry seemed to go quiet so I never ended up hearing for sure. Did you / could you grab pics of the driver? I canāt believe they didnāt use the same flashing pad layout that I had provided. At least there are pads, I suppose. I can always rig something up if I need to for flashing.
But which firmware? Some say Anduril 1, some say 2. I doubt that they created their own ATtiny1616 Anduril 1 port. Maybe two different drivers from different batches?
This was the best I got at the time, just taken with a phone. The ā1616ā can be barely made out, itās a 20pin SOC and looks to be the appropriate size just by eyeballing it.
Also interestingly, the driver was keyed to the head so it wouldnāt rotate if it became loose and muck with the USB port position. Not sure if this is a standard thing with Sofirn on-board rechargeable lights.
I just got my SC21 Pro in today and can confirm that itās using the attiny1616 since I was able to successfully ping, read, and write with pymcuprog.
Does anyone have any ideas about what firmware might work on it? Maybe the SP36-1616 build?
