Some recent updates which are now published:
- Added a compile-time option to select between press-on and release-on, and between release-off and timeout-off. This determines when the light responds to a single click to turn the light on or off… responding at button press, at button release, or at the event timeout. This has been requested quite a bit.
- Changed the default turn-on timing from press-on to release-on. This makes it easier to tell when to let go for staying at the lowest level, because the light doesn’t turn on before then. (when compiled with press-on, it’ll still have the moon timing hint)
- Made the button release timeout a bit faster, so the light should turn off a bit sooner after one click. Also, any multi-click events need to be done slightly faster, but it should still be easy to do. The timing now matches Olight’s products instead of ZebraLight. (went from ~384ms to ~288ms, or from 24 frames to 18 frames)
- Added a user-configurable runtime option to switch between automatic memory (default) and manual memory. Some people call this “no memory” or “forced preset”. In manual mode, one click from off turns on at the same level each time, regardless of what level it was in during the previous session. To configure it:
- Turn the light on and ramp to the desired level, then click 5 times. This enables manual memory and saves the current brightness level.
- To go back to automatic memory, turn the light on then click 5 times… but hold the last click. So, click-click-click-click-hold.
- Added support for the Fireflies E01.
- Added support for the BLF LT1 lantern. Included in this is support for tint ramping.
- Rewrote thermal regulation. It doesn’t seem to need the hard turbo drop option any more, and it’s much more stable when it reaches its ideal level.
- Made ramp-able strobe modes auto-reverse like the regular ramping mode. So, after holding to adjust, releasing and holding again within a second goes the other way.
- Enabled fancy (2-level) momentary moon by default in lockout mode. The second click uses the other ramp floor. So if you need a bit more (or less) light during lockout, it’s available.
- Made momentary mode support strobes. To do this, go to a strobe mode, turn the light off, then start up momentary mode. Or, to do a regular momentary mode, go to a regular ramp level, then turn the light off, then start up momentary mode. Basically, it’ll do momentary in whatever mode you were just using, as long as it was a ramp or a strobe-group mode. Momentary strobes are useful for light painting.
- Made candle mode a little more calm but also able to burn a bit brighter sometimes.
- Fixed a tiny bug in lightning mode (it didn’t use the top 7 ramp levels before).
New builds are up in the usual place. I count 19 different build targets now.
If anyone has the ability to reflash easily, testing is appreciated.
