KnotSoMuch:

I recall reading that the USBasp V2.0 Programmers need to be updated regularly with new firmware…. So, is it likely, that I’ll need this USBasp updated?

In the ~5 years that I’ve owned my USBASP 2.0, I’ve never updated it’s firmware or seen the need to. I won’t say your experience will be the same, but I’d only worry about that if you run into issues that don’t have other explanations.

My SFT-40 is a bit warmer on lower outputs which are borderline useless, middle is white and high is slightly bluish but not noticable immediately like on some LEDs. You mostly see this in the corona and spill.

I did use it quite a bit but I didn’t do any voltage measurements or timed the use.
Something that I noticed is that the flashlight is brighter with the Samsung 30T vs 40T but it burned through the battery like nothing. I was shocked that the battery was at 3.8V after a bit of use on turbo. Now looking back and reading your experiences, maybe that’s the voltage readout bug.

I did a quick measurement as I’m writing and the battery is at 4.03V while the flashlight reads out 3.8V

I love that the voltage blinking is slower on Narsil vs Anduril. I have a hard time counting the fast flashes on Anduril.
Regarding Narsil, that the only thing I like about it lmao. Can’t wait to flash it.

I also don’t like the double springs. Seems like they just add unnecessary pressure and the cap harder to screw in.

Was that added for extra recoil resistance in case it’s used as a weapon light?

I would prefer a normal spring with a bypass.

I’ve seen some guy on the forums and YouTube using a custom reflector that’s supposed to be much better, especially for the SFT-40.

Does anyone know something about it?

Hello, I want to tell you about something that happens with my FT03S SFH55, which doesn’t bother me because I don’t care if I make flat or curved graphs, which I think is curious and may be due to temperature control and I don’t know if it’s due to Anduril’s prediction function .
In the stepped ram modes, refrigerated or not, and being less than 40 degrees Celsius, the luminosity decreases after a while to very low levels without the temperature having exceeded 40 C, even more pronounced than in “turbo” mode without I can think of an explanation for it when I have set the maximum temperature to 69 C by setting the flashlight temperature to room correctly.
Attached graphic of what I have explained so that you know and in case you have an explanation. Test begins with battery at 3.8v

Guys, has anyone measured the current? I have a couple of these SFH55, and I am thinking of ways on how to put one in my Convoy L6 (with rearranged batteries), but I have no idea where to get a driver that can draw some serious current.
I’m kinda tempted to just directly drive it, incandescent style.
Organise a battle 26650 Vs sfh55 in an L6 ring?

Any high quality FET driver will work. I think the L6 takes a 26 or 30mm driver? I forget. The 26650s will lose. That SFH can pull huge current easily 40 or more amps before dying if kept cool. I measured the 7070 size SFN55.2 and it easily pulled 30 amps off a single 26800. I think it would work better in a L21A host since it’s a single battery, plus drivers are readily available in 20-22 mm.
