I know it seems straightforward but it would be nice to see a pic of a properly installed thermistor. I’m assuming that’s underside of pill or led shelf but my assumptions have always been my greatest enemy.

Three Tanna leaves to give him life, nine to give him movement. But what if he eats the whole bag?
It will work with a forward switch, with the only difference that instead of a half-press to switch modes as you normally would with a reverse switch, you need to click twice to cycle off-on.
I have an application in a headlamp, I am wondering can the modes be spaced closer and not so fire breating on the high end.
I want to put a 6v MT-G2 in the spark SX5 so max brightness will not be the most important thing. (the magnetic lights did not work out so this is a fall back project).
Does the LD-1 or 2 (or other) work with electronic switches?
Also how do we get ramping put in, so we can choose how bright we want it?
and do you have Boost drivers for single cell 6V applications?
Sorry I maybe asking dumb questions.

LD-2 works with e-switches. But modes are fixed AFAIK – it’s not like the ATtiny13a drivers where you can swap/modify programs.
Ramping is one of the ui’s available for e-switch use. A resistor change can reduce the max current. See the into thread for the formula to choose the correct resistor value for a given max current.

I'm not sure if my post/answer about ramping is deleted,so I'll repeat (and definitely must refresh OP):
Ramping UI is removed in LD-2,instead of that,UI_2 in now "discrete ramping",so by holding switch you ramp up/down through existing discrete modes (moon,low,med,high),double press toggles mode between min/max,normal press is on/off (last mode from off),long press from off is for lowest mode from off.
Order placed for 5 more drivers, 4 full resistor sets and 2 moonlights+tracking.
Thanks for making these drivers and lowering the min order amount, they are awesome so nice to not have a turbo timer !
See post 78, ntc resistors are included by default
Got it, thanks. My limited electronics brain didn’t realize a NTC resistor was the same thing as a thermister

Thanks for the info!
Just curious, are there many left?

I have enough parts this time.

I still have 4 of the LD1s, why am I tempted to buy 4 LD2s?
So you can gloat when everyone else’s are gone.

The LD-2 is a nice match to the new flat-top emitters and the Reylight.
A hot flashlight. Celsius, if not sex appeal.
I should have taken a little more care to center the little button but it wanted to stick where it is……….
Thanks, led4power!

what happened to the info thread? it doesn’t load at the moment:

Yep. noticed that too. The matrix is being wonky this morning!

Price and minimum quantity drop!
Minimum order quantity for European Union countries is now 1 piece,and only 2 pieces for rest of the World.
Also more max. current set resistors choices now:5A,7A,8A,9A,10A or 12A
Added: STANNOL 0.7mm HS10 solder wire
2S-4S parts are currently out of stock!

Have you done any further testing with the remote board idea?
It's still in progress.

Thanks for dropping the MOQ

Any thought of making 22mm driver’s?
KB1428 “Live Life WOT”
Plenty of 22 mm adapters available. The production cost of this board might make it hard to keep affordable in several sizes.

I would like to ask when it will be available again?
Thanks!
1-2 weeks.

2xLi-ion(“6V”,2S) support parts are back in stock,also I added options for 3S and 4S cells support.
