It’s possible, but you’d need to remove the bezel with force and desolder some wires to poke the board down and get access to the MCU.
Sofirn haven’t made it easy to reflash the SC31 Pro.
More details:
Could someone confirm if my understanding is correct -
From the Flashlight Firmware Repository, if I want to get the latest firmware for Anduril I simply download the tarball for rev 490 (as of Nov 2020), using the ‘make’ command via Avrdude that will produce the most recent firmware as .hex files for FW3A, D4V2, KR4 etc?
I know it’s rather a newbie question, coding isn’t my background although I’m now a day into learning C in order to get my head around the code structure.
Thanks in advance.
I think the canonical way is to run `ToyKeeper/spaghetti-monster/anduril/build-all.sh`. It’ll produce one hex file per “cfg-” file in that same directory.
Thank you very much!
Haven’t updated my d4v2 since the muggle mode issue but thought it’s good to know what the latest updates are!
I guess all of Hank’s lights are ones you can use pogo pin with?
Thanks
Thanks Tim, I do follow the SC31 Pro thread now.
I'v seen this very successful achievement by SammysHP, but this is not within the newbie's reach.
So unless a dedicated easy-to-use flashing kit becomes available, I'll be waiting for a future version of the SC31 Pro, more upgrade-friendly as I suggested in a PM to Barry.
Hey guys, I have a D4V2 with the KR4 driver i bought straight from hank. I was wondering if you guys knew what settings i needed for a PC based update… and if an update came out in the last year? Do we still use the same drivers/software outlined in this thread?
Which LED option is installed on your D4v2 with KR4 driver?
Xp-l hi v3 I believe
So your D4v2 has XPL-Hi LED and the KR4 driver (5A CC constant-current + FET).
I believe the correct .hex file is either the
anduril.2020-07-08.emisar-d4v2.5.hex 2020-07-08 21:55 26K
or
anduril.2020-04-27.noctigon-kr4.hex 2020-04-27 19:21 26K
in the TK Anduril 1 firmware repository (URL: Index of /torches/fsm )
I think I’ve encountered an issue (strobes issue?) with the “2020-07-08.emisar-d4v2.5” so I used the “2020-04-27.noctigon-kr4” instead
Or use
anduril.2021-01-25.noctigon-kr4.hex 2021-01-25 00:06 26K
if Anduril 2 ( URL: Index of /torches/fsm/anduril2 )
How do I figure out the correct one between the two? I know it has the KR4 driver but is the D4V2ti. I’m assuming it goes by driver and not flashlight model?
D4v2 with XPL-Hi LED can use the FET version (ie. not the NoFET version).
The firmware goes by the driver, not exactly the flashlight model.
I think there was some previous discussion regarding the difference between D4v2.5 and KR4, which I can’t exactly remember (will need to search previous posts or other message threads here in BLF). Both mentioned hex files would be usable on the D4v2 with the KR4 driver… but one may have a few issues (can’t remember exactly though… should be minor issue only)
Hi all
I flashed anduril.2021-01-25.noctigon-kr4.hex on my D4V2 with XP-L HI V3 3A, 5000K, so I believe I do have KR4 driver.
But I cannot configure AUX leds, going into advanced mode does nothing. Not sure if that’s correct then. Any help please ?
Just to retrace the steps from the start (Anduril 2):
- do a factory reset first (hold down button while tightening the tailcap until the “exploding” animatino)
- switch to Advanced UI: from OFF, do 10H (10 clicks but the 10th click is a “hold”)
- configure Aux-LED:
from OFF: do 7 clicks to change the Aux-LED mode (Low -> High -> Blinking -> Off)
or from OFF: do 7H (7 clicks but the 7th click is a “hold”: continue holding will cycle each color / disco / rainbow / voltage)
I have come up with a much simpler way of doing a Mac install on Big Sur that does not need Xcode installed and is much simpler.
These are very minimal and simple instructions.
Open up a terminal window and type the following:
Confirm the installation of the Xcode tools
Let the home-brew system install - this may ask for your password
This will install the avrdude utility
This should have installed everything you need to flash your flashlights. To test that avrdude is installed and running type the following on the terminal window:
avrdude should return a version number.
From here you can install the new version of Anduril on your light following the Windows instructions from the step titled “Testing Communication To The D4V2”
For me this was a as simple as downloading the latest file and running this command line:
I hope someone finds this useful.
I think I bricked my D4V2 Sand with XPL-HI emitters while flashing Anduril 2.

I tried flashing it again with Anduril 2 and Anduril 1 but I get:

I'm using the flashkit from intl-outdoor. I also tried using another USBasp and cable. I was able to flash my D4V2 Ti using Ubuntu with avrdude 6.3 and Zflasher on Android but not my D4V2 Sand.

I also checked continuity with a DMM between the USBasp board and pogo adapter board, and between pogo adapter and pogo pins.
Has anyone managed to brick a D4V2 before?
Would I need to remove the at1634 and try to clear it?
It's possible that I slipped with the pogo pins by ~1mm and touched the wrong pads while flashing.
I’ve only ever bricked an ATTiny from flashing fuses when it wasn’t necessary. It doesn’t look like you did that.
TBH I think this is all bad connections.
I hope so… My D4V2 Sand no longer responds. I was able to flash it multiple times.
Holding it like this:
The connection to my D4V2 Ti works and I can flash it.
The pads on the D4V2 Sand look ok. I wiped them with some isopropyl alcohol yesterday but it still won’t respond:
Is there a second source for the pogo pin adapter? Emisar D4V2 / D4SV2 / KR4 reflashing kit seems like you can only pay with an actual Paypal account (as opposed to just via credit card thru paypal) and i don’t have a Paypal acct.
I just got a d4v2 and I’m so happy the driver has the AVR programming pins brought out to the back. I spent so much time writing code and flashing for the old attiny nanjg and similar driver boards for older generation lights and it was such a pain always having to take apart the head to reflash. So I’m looking forward to messing with Anduril without all the pain!
