a nice light in the medium-throwy class…though I’m most looking forward to having this tech in smaller form factors. I look forward to Flex lights in the sub-C8 category (like Convoy M1/M2 or Shiningbeam Blaze) as well as something truly EDC’able in jeans’ pockets.
To answer some of your questions:
- For the Asgard, there are 254 bytes reserved for commands and their accompanying parameters. However, each mode is limited to 64 bytes due to memory constraints. 64 bytes are enough for a morse code about 5-character long, depending on how you encode the message.
- The light has a reverse clickie so no it can’t stay on while power button is pressed.
- Mode groups are called profiles in the app. You can define unlimited number of such profiles, but to switch between them you’ll see your smartphone to be around.
- There is a group of advanced commands which contains (pseudo) RNG (and more). We will explain on these advanced controls when the app is released.
Thanks! This gives me a much better idea what the light might be capable of.
I’m just waiting for the app now, to see if I’ll be able to run it.
I just want to be clear, this works with Windows XP and up right? The only reason I ask is that a lot of people seem concerned about being able to program this flashlight.
Well, that doesn’t sound quite ‘right’. Any person who buys this Should and Expects to be able to program it by Bluetooth, either from the PC app, or smartphone app. That’s the main attraction of this light. So your question comes across as a little ‘strange’. If not they would be better off with a ZY-T08.
But we don’t know yet anyway. Still gotta wait for the reviews, to confirm it.
I only ask, because I’m pretty sure I saw very early on that they said it would be via windows or Android. But I keep reading people worried that they can’t program it. Unless there’s been some information I missed- almost all people have access to Windows or Android devices so I’m asking for confirmation. Ok, let me wade back through and find the info for myself….
Edit: That took two seconds… Fastechs website…
Well that’s what I wanted to know.
Yep it’s stated in the website. But I’ll see the reviews to further confirm it. 
I hope the reviewers could test programming via PC and phone
No worries. We will. :)

Well, my prerelease sample of the new FLEXCandles Asgard model arrived today. This is the light with the Bluetooth equipped driver that can be programmed wireless on the fly using your Android device or even from your Windows PC using their custom FLEXCandles app. Sorry for some of the crappy pics...I couldn't wait to post them. :bigsmile:
Are you serious? Have you tried PM’ing them?
Hows the FnF compare to the small sun johnny??
Aside from the user interface, pretty much identical in every way. LOL! I’m waiting to see if the others have received theirs yet and whether they are seeing a couple issues that I’ve noticed. Then I need to work with Fasttech to iron things out. 
Not a big deal, I'd rather wait on the final version anyway.

Yeah, but there were a bunch of people (including me) who were looking forward to your review! Can we start a campaign or something?
I gotta say after seeing these pics that I’m glad I held off on purchasing this light. I’m excited about the methodology, etc, and it would be a great light to play around with, maybe more than anything to date … but other than that reflector, bezel, and emitter, this light is an eyesore to me. $46 is still $46. Now, make me feel really bad by giving it a great review!
ohaya -
I'm talking about the app. I'm saying I don't mind waiting for the final version of the app, which should be here about the time the light arrives.
