New flashaholic here. I’m new to this hobby. I started out with a Nebo Torchy (wich is dangerous when you tend to walk around with ferrous metal shavings in your pockets), advanced to the SC21 5000k and just added a SC21 pro to the collection.
I flashed my light with anduril.2021-12-13.sofirn-sp36-t1616 according to Adair21s instructions. I soldered to the pads and used an FTDI breakout board, two resistors and a diode on a bread board for the flashing.
At first I had slow ramping. After a factory reset it started ramping normally.
Fiddeling with my light, I found out that the bezel isn’t glued (seems like they have skipped the glue on the green versions.)
That led me to order some TIR lenses from Convoy to do some experimenting.
At the same time I ordered an 2700k S2+ LH351D (I also have a 4000k SP36 BLF incoming). Into the rabbit hole I go.
Thanks. The automatic lockout was definitely worth the effort.

Like Yngwie Malmsteen is the closest pronunciation for english speakers. I belive I read once that he changed from Yngve to Yngwie because no one could pronounce Yngve.
I know the D4v2 has different flashing pads. I have been able to flash the D4v2 with Hank’s adapter by simply using a steady hand and holding the pins down on the flashing pads.
Can I build a similar adapter and hold it down on the flashing pads? If so, any guide on how to build an adapter for this light? I wonder what Sofirn uses to flash firmware
My little SC21 Pro, modded to 660nm red has become my favorite nightstand light. Im finding the lighted switch really useful.
For the past few days I have been leaving the Red LED On at the lowest mode 24/7. It has not changed the battery voltage readout (love that feature too). Im starting to wonder how long the lowest mode will last… LOL
That is the intended way to use the pads. You have to make yourself an adapter with pogo pins. You’ll also need a different programming device and software compared to the D4v2.
I have zero clue where to start. I followed the guide on BLF for the D4v2. I have no idea what to purchase, what programming device, software, etc. Would this be similar software to the SP10 Pro? I have gchart’s adapter but haven’t had time to look for a guide for the SP10 Pro

can someone sell me a pogo harness for SC21 Pro that plugs into my TTL?
Im just in over my head trying to understand this:
Im trying to understand what connections to make to the TTL…
questions:
1. you want me to connect pin 6 on the SC21 to VCC? my TTL does not have a VCC label… which label is equivalent to what you call VCC?
2. you want me to connect pin 1 on the light to Both TX and RX on the TTL? And does this programmer need a resistor between pin 1 on the SC21 and the TX and RX parts of the TTL?
sorry to be dense… if this is just too many questions… I understand. Totally lost here…
Adair21, could you share a photo of the TTL and wiring harness you use to flash SC21 Pro? And how you conect to the light? I think Im a visual learner…
