New Convoy C8 – Clearly better

From the research I did on 5 sample drivers, it's the programming of the fuses that was done incorrectly. So the main problem is not hardware or firmware, but how manufacturing programmed the fuses, which in turn effects the firmware.

They used these values: http://www.engbedded.com ATtiny13A LOW = 0x7A HIGH = 0xFF

But they should have used: http://www.engbedded.com ATtiny13A LOW = 0x75 HIGH = 0xFF

If you can follow those linked pages, the difference is doubling of the clock rate of the ATtiny13A for what they used at 9.6 Mhz, while the rate should be 4.8 Mhz.

Going back through this thread, many find the current double speed version still very functional, useful, and better than others out there. Sure, would be nice if they were programmed at the correct speed, then the configuration will be easier, strobes and blinks operate as intended, etc., but it's still a pretty powerful, nice UI as-is.
