Has the latest version of Anduril from TK with the improved stepdown?
It’s with the latest anduril ui from TK.
TK updates it so quickly that it’s hard to tell what the latest is
Personally, I’m looking for at least version 420 from 2019-05-22, but I think the improved stepdown was merged two or three versions after that (and to my knowledge, the latest is revision 428 on 2019-06-02).
Looks great… But I wish it had higher regulated current. I would rather have a 4mm longer light to accomodate 6 more AMC 7135 chips on the cell’s side of the driver, like the FW3A. 750+ lumens vs only 150 lumens regulated current.
I’ll pass on this one.

Damn. I was done buying flashlights… Spent so much money already lately on lights and trits, but got to have one of these. My smooth green D4 deserves to become a shelf queen.
Nice work Hank, in the lead for best pocket rocket in the market again.
I don’t think it’s quite a deal breaker for me, but it’s certainly a reason to keep using my FW3A. It’s the primary reason I keep using my FW3A instead of my D4, even slightly moreso than the fact it runs Anduril.
On the bright side, with Anduril on the new D4 I should be able to cap the ramp at something reasonable like 300 lumens to limit how much power I fritter away. The new option to make it always switch on at any desired level (such as max regulated) will be really useful too.
Hank are you have any plan for 21700 in your product ?
Yes, sure, it’s under developing.
Please let this one have a FET+6+1 driver or something in that range?
It’s still FET+1×7135 driver
That’s a deal breaker for me.
Don’t worry, the 3-channel driver is nice but also overrated. Sure it is a nice thought to have it in your light, but the slight efficiency gain you get in medium modes will not be noticable in your runtimes.
I seemed to notice that my FW3A goes for longer at the maximum regulated ~800lm level than my D4 at the same sort of brightness. Is this most likely because I just keep overshooting and ending up with 1000lm+?
Anduril will surely make it a lot easier to know how much output we’re getting. So glad it’s now included on Emisar’s newer flashlights.
Are external dimensions the same?
I think that magnet addition would increase the length (even for those who don’t use it) which would be a small step back…

Hank mentioned 3mm extra of the tailcap because of the magnet, so I guess overall length is 3mm extra.
That is a good question, though from my experience I have found Anduril to operate just like Ramping IOS V2 if you only use the relevant button presses.
I have found the simple shortcut to directly ramp down instead of having to guess the ramp direction to be an incredibly useful addition in Anduril however.

edit: and here is a more readable changelog.
Awesome that V2 is coming! Can’t wait!!!
I haven’t even received my latest D4 yet and this comes out…
And 424 offers manual memory, which I find to be a huge improvement. Prior to 427, that has to be enabled at compile-time, but it’s the default now.

Will titanium version of the D4v2 be created?
Damn. I was done buying flashlights… Spent so much money already lately on lights and trits, but got to have one of these. My smooth green D4 deserves to become a shelf queen.

Can’t wait for it to be available! Hopefully we see updates on the other Emisar lights too.

Hank, is this being done through a multi-color micro SMD LED like this one?
Wow, how does this work? Is that a TK question?
That looks awfully small for a multi led SMD.
I think the ad you posted is for 25 LED each of 5 different colors, not for a multi LED SMD.

Hank any chance for LH351D in this light ? would be nice have a multi emitter light with that..

I gotta tell ya, this is pretty terrific!

I skimmed through the thread too quickly to notice. Thanks djozz!
I wonder if V1 tailcaps are compatible with V2 tubes…
Wil the Ramping IOS V2 be there as a optional choice? Not everyone likes Anduril.
