How do you get to temperature check? The diagram at LT1-Mini Manual PDF file shows from off - 3 clicks to batt check then 2 more to temp check. When I do 2 clicks from batt check it goes to beacon then 2 more clicks to SOS and 2 more takes you back to batt check. I have tried factory resets and I am sure I am in advanced UI.
Your right, my original LT1 came with Andruil, my later one came with Sofrin board and Andruil2.
I bought a board from Oshpark to program my original, not done it yet, but of course Sofrin seem to make up a new pin pattern on every light. We already had competing “standards” to chose from :person_facepalming:
LT1 and LT1 Mini do not have a temperature sensor so they do not have a temperature check mode. They are designed to never get too hot so you do not have to worry about temperature.
Click 3 times from on and hold the last click
Agreed. Of my few complaints with LT1 Mini, that is the largest. Sofirn continues to use different flashing pad layouts on various models rather than standardizing so that we can easily do firmware updates. They even changed the flashing pad layout on LT1 when they released the latest powerbank version.
To know if you’re in simple mode or not, click 3x from off to do a battery check. If it blinks out the voltage once and then turns off, you’re in the Simple UI. If it continues to blink out the voltage until you click to stop it, then it’s in the Advanced UI.
To toggle from Simple to Advanced, click 10x from off and hold the last click.
To toggle from Advanced back to simple, click 10x from off.
I made a reflector and wider base for my LT1 Mini that attach magnetically. The base stows on top and only adds 1mm of height. Complete kits for sale here if you’re interested. Thanks to Lixivium for the idea to have the base store on top!
Great lantern. I like it as a flashlight. Hope to see it with a bezel, or IF25 pro / blf version, anduril 2, instant tint shift, xp-l hi 2850/5000 or 519A’s.
Sofirn has updated LT1 Mini’s driver design to use an ATTiny1616 instead of an ATTiny85. Below to the left is a photo of my early-production review sample, and below to the right is a brand new LT1 Mini someone posted in the comments of my review. New lights use the “blf-lantern-t1616” firmware.
Does anyone know a good way to remove these drivers? I’d like to reflash mine using an SOIC clip but I can’t figure out how to remove the driver.
