Depends the light is it a small edc or a big like c8 or more
shockli great imr batteries
Probably a well built 26650 zoomie.

26650 zoomie like these
edit :
If using in 26650 zoomie.
Turbo time out
Hi , depand on using mass aluminium can handle heat until battery down.
Low
Hidden blinky modes
=the=
STAR firmware by JohnnyC does this as well
http://budgetlightforum.com/node/29150
Alot of us have used the source code from JohnnyC and thru “tweaking” certain parts of the code reversed pretty much all the options, different builds that have H>L reverse with star or L>H reverse with star, every option that you can imagine
I built a custom Ultrafire 602C w/ the 4*7135 driving a XP-G, 1 min turbo timeout, H>L, w/ moonlight modes, and no memory it works quite nicely and since there are no “stars” to solder I had to build the firmware to behave default w/ no stars how I wanted it to behave w/o soldering stars by using JohnnyC’s firmware.

Assuming mode memory applies to the strobe setting, once it’s accessed — it’s fine as is.
(I carry a light as a pedestrian, turn it on in crosswalks — always to strobe before stepping off the curb, because I’ve had cars come up so fast I didn’t have time to puzzle through multiple clicks on other lights. I always carry one I can leave set on blinkenlight).
If used with the suggested 26650 zoomie, I do not think I would like a timer step-down, it can handle the 2.8A continuously.
The rest of the UI: I love it!

I would like to see the option for number of modes. For example no star one mode, full on. Star 1= 2 modes etc.
Ah shoot…I guess having the hidden clickies…would like to see a double tap and hold for flashies, release back to mode before you double tapped to get strobe
Other than that…good on ya…most awesome!
Do you plan that the seller flashes the driver or do you want to order them to your home flash and then send them to the users?

no memory
no turbo timer
no need for firefly

i use conductive paint to connect the stars…
easy to remove (when on Batteryside) with some thinner and a Q-tip
so playing around with the funktions is easy…
PLEASE NOTE

the - where'd you get that zoomie? Look'n for better quality zoomies, but still budget. You got a link? More specs?
Yes, also the blinky modes are memorized. You are fine as long as you use it more than 1s at a time.
Seller (or manufacturer) flashes the drivers.
See your PM.
Half time results:
Judging by the answers so far, it seems like the three settings which can be modified with stars would be:
1. Mode order
2. Mode memory
3. Turbo timer
..which would leave the lowlow mode enabled and hidden modes available. At least I would be ok with those settings. Any objections?
I have to add that turbo timer is a requirement by the manufacturer. They say that 6x7135 is the maximum they are willing to do, or warranty will be void. 8x7135 + turbo timer should be ok for them. That would leave the buyer the option to disable the turbo timer and thus void the warranty.

Disable turbo timeout: 2.8 amps is not that much for a large light with good heat management, say direct thick copper star, well fitted to a solid pill screwed into a finned hard anodized head. Also, as mentioned at the top, air flow such as on a bicycle improves cooling.
Change mode order.
Disable mode memory.
For example, if you use it in a place that is very dark you would want it to start very low, not to lose night vision, or if you use it indoors a lot to supplement room lighting you would want it always to start on turbo.

Like the looks of the zoomie the. Could you pm the link too, thanks.

Please be patient. We are still negotiating with the reseller and the manufacturer. Group buy will be announced as soon as we get into agreement..
=the=
I am interested!
and not very patient…

How will they prove you've disabled the timer, voiding the warranty? Couldn't they just deny most claims saying you must have disabled it?
If you get a good price I am in for this
Mooooooo
same here
I might be in, depending mostly on price.

I like having a strobe, but not part of the selections. I’d make it where it comes on whenever you hold the button down for more than 5sec or something regardless of what mode you’re in. Then just turn off and back on to reset.
Disable mode memory, change mode order either ascending or descending. If capable of getting a host that can have a momentary button I would like that so that I can use the double tap for strobe.

Honestly i would love to see dip switches used instead of soldering stars although im not sure there a sets of 3 available or how that would work, but i can dream.
