It’s the same problem with the TS21 and that are is a problem that can’t be fixed because of the switch. Hopefully this isn’t the case here. There’s no point to aux lights if they whip through batteries.
The current of the aux LED can be adjusted. we just thought it looks need brighter on high, so the current is adjusted relatively large.
If you want it to be less bright in the high-brightness gear, the current can be adjusted down.
Brighter looks prettier?
I agree with this mindset. This is exactly what I do with my Emisar, Noctigon, and FireFlies lights. High aux If I want them as literal auxiliary lighting at night, and low auxiliaries level (which is what I use on 90% of my lights 90% of the time) for a locater at night.
gotta have your cake and eat it too! Can't have that pretty, bright auxiliary light without some drain. And yea that reported drain is pretty darn high (on aux high mode), but changing resistor values for different color auxiliary LEDs is not a reasonable expectation of the manufacturer in my opinion. They could just do a lower value, and then half the customers would be dissatisfied that they aux are too low. So it's a lose-lose situation for Wurkkos. But I'm happy with the results. Well, I think I will be . I have seen the light in person yet lol.
8 days to arrive, pretty quick! Color temp is definitely on the cooler side, but the tint seems fine, imo. Would love to see a lower CCT version in the future
Got mine, actually love the tint! But, for the life of me I cannot set an autolock timer. In advanced, locked out and 10H does nothing. What am I doing wrong? Also, any firmware updates for the aux leds on when main light is on? Did not see a hex file on TK’s site.
Already available for preorder on Aliexpress in 4000K with black or red body and one new aux color (green). Looks like you can order but they won’t be ready until the 20th. I haven’t even seen mine yet (it’s in my mailbox) but I still may order a red one in 4000K.
I found this on the threads in the head of my light, like the drill bit was tilted… in 2 places. Screws on ok, but still… Still can’t get auto lock enabled. Does the stock firmware even have it?
Finally got autolock on… button must be pressed very squarely to take accurate counts. I really love it and am thrilled by the first 6000k that I like!
Not officially, Toykeeper probably wasn’t even involved in the development of the TS10. I have made my own hex that fixes this issue and can share it if anyone wants it. It is basically just sofirn-sp36-t1616 with a single line of the code commented out.
The big thing that feels different to me is the lack of blue and glare. The cri does not hurt either. At high drive the Duv actually goes ever so slightly negative as well!
