Just measured the current on turbo; 2,5A. Fully charged included Sofirn battery, at emitter, not tailcap. Only saw parasitic drain numbers here, so thought it might be good to share the knowledge
Note that this is for the standard SC21, not the pro.
Is your package send by Yanwen Logistics as well? No movement whatsoever for 4 days already. And thatâs just the sorting center, not even departure. Unusually long.
I love it very much! It is so small yet it can turbo up to 1000 lumens (manufacturerâs claim).
The integrated USB Type-C 1A charger is convenient when you need to charge the battery without an external charger.
Nothing much I can say about the Anduril UI it is the best flashlight UI at the moment.
The battery internal impedance is on the higher side (reported 100 milliohms on my Vapcell S4 Plus charger), but I have a Yaorea YR1035+ battery tester coming soon that I can use to accurately check all my batteries.
I wish the included tailcap magnet can be as strong as Hankâs D4V2
In future I hope that there is a way to flash Anduril 2 into it.
Side note: When the light reaches the ceiling of the ramp it wonât blink once to indicate that you are at the ceiling of the ramp which is kind of strange.
Strange that it has Anduril 1 considering it explicitly states Anduril 2. Iâll test as well once mine arrives, although it still hasnât moved⌠Also good to know that it has LVP. Donât have to worry about waking up next to a dead battery if you use it as a nightlight and fall asleep.
Edit:
Out of the blue these showed up this morning. No tracking updates whatsoever outside of China. Strange, but they arrived.
Some very quick notes after unpacking;
- Anduril 1 on both apparently.
- Buttons feel very different between the 2; 1 has a nice click, the other is hard to press.
- Different settings between the 2. Did factory reset on both.
- Switch light works and can be controlled! Colour green.
- LEDs differ in brightness. 1 is noticeably dimmer than the other.
1) Can confirm that mine came with Anduril 1.
2) Mine came with the stiff button type (no click).
3) I donât have a second one to compare.
4) Mine came with the Anduril 2 manual (lol).
5) No visible damage to my light.
Yeah,my thoughts almost exactly⌠in my mind it âheckâ was replaced with a less decent word
Pin mappings? Really want to flash Anduril 2 on at least 1, but not sure how to hook this one up. What MCU is inside? In any case another custom pogo pin setup :person_facepalming: Really wish theyâd settle on some sort of standard, even if itâs just Sofirn only.
Anyone know a way to contact Barry? Could send a PM, but prefer not to do that for orders that have nothing to do with BLF. Sofirnlightâs email seems to be out of service and I donât have FB messenger.
Plot twist: Designer saw that every flashlight has shiny pads at the driver side, each with a number or letter. So he added some as well. They arenât connected to anything. But now the driver looks like a proper driver.
Or maybe they started from pin one and there was only enough room for six pads, leaving the important one unconnected.
Very crappy 1st attempt at using ceilingbounce that I had to cut short. Started on high, battery around 3,85V. But itâs better than nothing and it sure doesnât look like the nice flat curve of the non-pro version. Make of it what you will.
PS: both were relatively easy to open.
PPS: it appears the switch LED does not indicate voltage. After the above runtime test the battery was at 3V, but the switch is still green. Not red, not blinking. But less bright it seems. It does turn red when charging.
I was looking more at the high runtime, since turbo creates a massive peak and messes with the general overview imho.
Anyway re-did it, temperature calibrated. But I need a better way to deal with the output that ceilingbounce creates. Once the pro goes lower brightness, the numbers get so small compared to turbo that they visually disappear. Not very practical. Or Iâm missing something. In any case at lower levels itâs pretty flatlined.
Applying my very limited openoffice skills I managed to split it at roughly at 60 minutes.
