Thanks for your input so far! Highly appreciated! Please keep on commenting.. :)
Couple of further questions:
1. Turbo timer
I have been thinking of the turbo timer thing.. Some testers have been indicating that the subtle ramp down from turbo is hardly noticeable. Maybe it would be ok to leave it as is and have an extra hidden mode: "Turbo (no timer)", so it could be selected if really needed.
That would leave one star for possibly more important things like "Single mode Turbo (with hidden goodies)" or "Tactical config" (= Strobe, Turbo - no memory + hidden goodies like lowlow).
Would that be ok for most of you?
2. Number of modes
I use the lowlow so much that I really like the current four mode config. Some people use it only seldom (or never) and would like to disable it..
Choices here are:
- 4 modes: LL->L->M->T (+ hidden modes) -- easy to select LL, bothers some people
- 3 modes: L->M->T (+ hidden modes, including LL) -- LL doesn't bother, harder to select if needed
3. Type of the hidden strobe
What is the strobe preference of BLF?
Should it be a:
- tactical disorienting strobe (10-20Hz)
- slower signalling strobe (2-5Hz)?
- or something else?
Of course "Make both" would be ideal, but I'm not sure if I can fit those in the ATtiny13 memory. :(
4. SOS & Beacons
I have received requests to put in a hidden SOS mode too -> that can fit in the memory, but replaces one of the beacons.
Options:
- Keep the 1s beacon
- Keep the 10s beacon
- or maybe a 2.5s beacon would do?
Thanks in advance for your opinions!
