I follow those steps, and I even get a double blink of the button after 7 clicks, but it’s staying in what I think is blinking mode. It will keep doing one dim blink, then a bright blink, then repeat that pattern. Is that some different indicator function, or is that the pattern for blinking mode?
Correct, we’re talking about the orange button LED.
So I hadn’t tried to change the standby mode LEDs since I prefer to keep those on high and lockout set to off, but I just tried it now and I can’t change standby LEDs away from high. I did verify that I was in advanced mode by switching ramped to stepped before I tried to change standby LEDs.
I just tested my LT1 Mini and it will allow me to switch between stepped and smooth ramping EVEN IN THE SIMPLE UI, which none of my other lights will do. That makes me think that you may actually be in the simple UI. Just one more time, try clicking 10x from off and holding the last click. Then try changing the switch LED settings.
You should check with a DMM. This is the first time I’ve heard of that high a termination voltage with a mini-LT. The internal check reads a little high straight from the factory I believe.
Right. Sorry, my wording was slightly ambiguous. The standby LED is orange. The blue is a charging indicator LED, not a standby LED. They’re two totally independent circuits and you cannot customize their colors.
1) There will be two (adjacent) "Voltage Correction Factor" settings that allow the "Battery Check" function to blink out "3.7" for a "Battery charged to 3.73 V".
2) Choose the one that can be selected with the least amount of clicks.
Note:
The above method adjusts the "Battery Check" function to blink out 3.7 when the battery voltage range is between 3.70 V and 3.80 V (or as close to that as is possible from adjustment).
Use a different battery voltage than 3.73 V if you want a lower or higher voltage range.
You can also use a battery at a different voltage than 3.73 V for adjustment. For instance, choose the "Voltage Correction Factor" selected with the least amount of clicks that allows the "Battery Check" function to blink out "4.1" for a "Battery charged to 4.13 V".
I bought a few of the N52 magnets that you linked (slightly thicker and stronger magnets). They look pretty big. I should be getting my Mini today, so I guess I will see if I can get one of the things inside of the spring. Any hints or tips on doing it without screwing something up??
Basically you slide the magnet in about halfway down the spring, then just spin the magnet around inside the tailcap to work it down to the bottom of the spring, then push it into the center.
