Hey everyone, bit of an interesting one. Is it possible to set the step down temperature of andruil2 lights beyond 70c via the hex file? If not is there a andruil2 firmware that may allow it or is it driver dependent?
I know there may be a couple comments in regards to led life, sustainability etc however this question is purely in regards to a hot rod I am making that is isolated away from the user when in use.
Thankyou and keen to hear some feedback 
It is in fsm-adc.h ;
// don’t allow user to set ceiling above 70 C
#ifndef MAX_THERM_CEIL
#define MAX_THERM_CEIL 70
#endif
So even in hex file you are unable to set temp past 70c?
What do you mean in hex file? Just adjust temperature value to your needs and compile hex file.
#ifndef MAX_THERM_CEIL
#define MAX_THERM_CEIL 100
#endif
It is technically possible, but would be extremely painful to edit the hex directly. You need to pull the source code from GitHub and change the value others have already commented.
It sounds intimidating but we could help walk you through it.
Thanks. Long, long time lurker.
This is the temperature the driver measures, not the LED itself, the junction temperature of the LED will be hotter than 70C. The only drivers I know of that had an LED MPCB temperature sensor were the LED4POWER ones.
Perhaps forced air cooling will support your requirements?
Yeah, you don’t want to do that.
They measure the temps of the driver and not the LED/pcb itself.
So if you hit the LED with twice the voltage and who knows how many times the current, the LED will go blue and dim and be irreparably damaged in seconds, while the driver itself is cool and comfy and sipping a pina colada not thinking anything’s wrong in the slightest.
Maybe smoke is the goal. I’m not judging….
