Got a flashlight with this driver, it’s really wonderful !!

Is it possible to add another mode caused by 3 quick clicks?

I see one mode caused by 2 quick clicks, I put a turbo on it, and I would like another 3 click mode so that I can put a strobe on it. Otherwise, constantly have to think and choose when configuring - double-click on a turbo or strobe.

If I put the turbo on the last mode in ascending order, then if I suddenly need it urgently, and I am in firefly mode, then the extra seconds of sorting the mode can be very expensive.

Zombie thread revival alert.

Hard to believe this driver and its programing was created over 6 years ago. Way ahead of its time.

Still my favorite clicky light driver. Built another light with it today.

Thanks Dr.Jones, whatever you are up to now days.

Upvote if you’re still using this driver in 2022.

Yeah I love this driver. Is there anything out there that makes it obsolete?

Still rocks

265

Yup, still a good one!

It’s still my favorite edc firmware for 7 years now. I prefer 4 light levels, and most drivers are 3 or 5. I’m using it with a forward clicky, but would love to try the firmware in a reverse action light. hint hint Simon.

Just in case anyone still needs to find the information Dr. Jones had on his website, which is offline, it is cached on the Internet Archive:

how can I do? thank you, i can’t find

Are these available anywhere other than mountain electronics? They don’t ship to the UK sadly

Double Tap. 8 Taps. 3 Taps to set brightness.

273

The double tap it to get to the position you want to change. 8 taps to configure menu. 3 taps is the brightness ramp. Tap once when brightness you desire has been reached.

I am not sure it won’t give you bright light, before going to low light, if you double tap from off.

i tried a couple of times but it didn’t work, finally i succeeded
thank you

I hate to revive an old thread, but what is the difference between the blue and purple boards? And if it isnt the same question, the difference between a H17f and a H17fx?
