As a member of Generation X it still blows me away how something that used to be something you stuck a couple of D cells in a switched on has evolved to having hundreds of times the brightness, a quarter of the size and practically needs a menu system to operate its many functions. I love technology!
Excellent Anduril UI tutorial video! I thought I knew everything about Anduril but the factory 13 click reset/hold switch down screwing cap back on(only the latter worked on A-lux MF-01S)was something I wish I'd known 2 years ago. Light wouldn't remember brightness setting last used. When switched back on, always came on at half brightness but now it remembers again. Thanks!
I don’t find it complex as much as I have a hard time remembering how to access all the different config menus and go through them. A little reminder is all it takes.
Thanks! Had to do a factory reset on my new Lumintop gt3 as it was stepping down quickly even when only on high, not turbo. But I can see why it was sent like that from the factory because it gets pretty damn 🥵 hot but huge flood
Good video explaining the close to impossible, I was lost looking at that image... its like the flashlight company asked a 12 year old to draw the istructions in code in chart form
Lol two people actually disliked this video! Was it not informative enough for them? Or do you think they are just trolls lurking the far reaches of youtube trying to dislike as many videos without dislikes as possible. Got the titanium FW3A with Anduril today. And this was an excellent informative video! (Despite the trolls dislikes) Subscribed.
I just received a SC21Pro but it won’t go into strobe mode with a click click hold as you’ve described in your video, I’ve been trying for 2hrs now. So frustrating, any tips for me sir? Thanks
Hello, thank you very much on your explanation so that I know how to operate my flashlight. My flashlight work fine until recently, i pressed it wrongly in my pocket. I realized, I have some problem for Lockout mode. After 4C, it is not locking properly, after i click it twice, it will turn to the lowest mode, without holding the button. Even after I reset the flashlight, i could not even lock after 4C. It will just turn on whenever i press on the button. Do you happened to know what is wrong with my Anduril settings? Thank you in advance!
Hi! Colour changing is not work for me (Sofirn sc31 pro). I bought the flashlight one day ago but I can't change the colour of the led. Have you an idea why?
Hi! In order for it to work you need at least 2 different LEDs. Sofirn SC31 Pro does not offer this feature. As I mentioned in the tutorial, not every flashlight has tint ramping
I used the factory reset. Aux-Lights are on the rainbow setting on low. But I seem to be stuck in moogle mode now. I can not leave it with 6 clicks, I cannot change the AUX-light or use the blinkies. Seem to be out off luck here 😢
About stepped ramping, what's the relation between lumens, ceiling and floor? Let's say that I have a Sofirn SC31 Pro with a maximum of 2000 lumens and I want just three steps, moonlight, 100 lúmens and 500 lumens. How to get that? Thanks in advance, this UI is quite complex but getting used with help makes it very interesting!
Complex to achieve that. Ceiling and floor (so highest and lowest mode) can be configured at a desired level. However, between them configuration is limited to number of steps. Theoretically, you could configure ceiling at around level 37 (about 500lm), and floor as moonlight, so level 1-3, depending on your preference. But even then, levels between floor and ceiling are evenly spread, turbo of 2000 lm present as well when double click from on.
Sir, finally got a Sofirn SC31 Pro and i'm enjoying Anduril a lot. Tricky, but can be kept as simple as i want. Came back to your video to configure the ramping settings. Thanks.
Sir, can you plz help me to restore default mode on my Sofirn SF36. I gave it to my dad I don't know what he did now it it is pretty odd to use. It's directly going to highest mode on a single cliq and coming down after the next cliqs. Plz help me to resolve this issue. I tried to restore default by your described methods but it's not happening. Plz help
Try to unscrew the head by 1/4 turn, than hold the button and screw down the head, keeping the button depressed. Fast strobe should appear, hold the button as long as the flashlight blinks - you have just reset the flashlight. Hope it helps
I watched this for the ramping modes. For some reason the 4 clicks to set the floor and ceiling work fine on my KR1 but my KR4 goes into lockout when I click the button 4 times when on. Weird
Thanks for this - very handy. I have the KR4 on the way and haven't had any experience with the Auxiliary lights, so that was great to know how they worked. BTW, I assume the same unprotected cells that work with the FW series - ie: 30Q / 35E Samsungs - will be ok with the KR series? Cheers - J.
Thanks for the detailed presentation, but I'm interested in how to reset to factory settings. I have an Astrolux EC01 and I set up something I don't like and would like to get it back as it was when I bought it. Ramping from 0 to 100% and double click for turbo. Thanks.
I'm looking up this video because I don't think my muggle mode and turbo modes work. Muggle mode doesn't seem to do anything, and turbo mode only stays on for a half second. I'm not very concerned about muggle mode, but I would like my turbo mode to last longer on my emisar d18. Any help is appreciated
Try to clean the contacts, maybe that is the problem with short turbo or try different batteries - use quality button top VTC6 or similar with high discharge current
@@FlashlightEnthusiast I continued to use the flashlight for a bit longer last night, and found out once it was time to charge that only 1/3 were being used because of flat top. It looks like those Sony batteries only come in flat top, is there an attachment I can put on my 18650s to make them a button top?
There are two available changes you can do: 1. Change AUX brightness/mode by 7 clicking from off 2. Change the color of AUX by 7 click and holding. Try both options to see what they do in your flashlight. Have 😊
Yes, of course! KR4 will be review soon, song with KR1 I think. I tried Anduril 2, but some experimental versions and I like it so far. As soon as I get my 2 E12R from fireflies I would probably do a Anduril 2 manual as well.
@@FlashlightEnthusiast sure i will . I reset my sp36 and before reset it ramps down slowly from turbo mode after 40 seconds but now even after one and a half minutes it keeps steady at turbo mode.
In my opinion, definitely the best flashlight UI ever created. Thank you ToyKeeper for your great work!
Thanks for the explanation because I confused as to how to get smooth ramping😅, you’re a lifesaver
I have tried to figure this flow chart out for 4 months with no luck. Watched your video and boom, I get now. Thank you so much my friend.
Same here some people just have a nak of explaining stuff

Thanks, I just ordered a KR1 which will be my first flashlight with this UI and it's a bit daunting but this definitely helps!
GREAT...easy to follow directions to a complex UI...Thank You!!!

You are welcome ☺️

Love my KR4
One of the best EDC flashlight in my opinion
@@FlashlightEnthusiast agreed ...thank you for this tutorial...it is clear and concise
I love the sound of that light's button click.
One of my favorites. Hank inserts excellent switches into Noctigon/Emisar flashlights
Thank you very much. This helped me a bunch. Be well.
I'm glad I could help. Be well too.
Absolutely awesome video helped me a lot
I am glad I could help. Take care
Thank you! Now I understand what I have bought ;-)
Appreciate your comment 😃
Thanks, ive been looking for someone to explain how to set ceiling and floor. The chart is a little elusive on information
Thanks for this video. So helpful and informative.
Thank you!

I found out. It’s 10 clicks and hold to leave the simple UI. I guess I am now not a muggle anymore 😅
Great work buddy 👍 Nowadays it's usually already Anduril 2. Have fun 😊
When i turn my flashlight on its starts to dim down automatically is there a way to turn that off ?
Try to calibrate thermal settings. Should help

What a coincidence your anduril version 2020/03/27

With my light on when I do 4 clicks it just goes into lockout mode.

Glad it was helpful! Unprotected cells will work perfectly fine in KR series, I wouldn't recommend using protected ones, as they might be too long
Hi. Can u tell me how to enter advance mode. I am stuck in basic mode
10 click and hold on the last one until small blink - from off position
@@FlashlightEnthusiast thanks a lot. I will check and confirm.

Try factory reset option (13H) or manually enter top ramp as level 120 (in configuration mode click 30 times)

is there a way to change double click from off to turbo instead of ceiling?
Yes, set ceiling as level 150 = Turbo after double click

You can put a bit of solder to make them button top. Be careful to make it quick not to overheat the batteries in the process
Which flashlight is the one in the video
Noctogon KR4, SST20 4000K 95 CRI version
i have Sofirn IF25a... this flashlight have Aux light function or not?
Green AUX are hidden under the side switch, 7 click will change the mode
My aunt leds blink on/off through colors how to get on constant?
7 clicks and hold to change AUX mode.
@@FlashlightEnthusiast did that but colors are very low power. Before they were bright and cycling through now just barely see there on

SST20 4000K 95 CRI
Please tell me there is no test.
You passed with flying colors, even without a test ;)
Thank you for the explanation, I really want an Anduril UI flashlight now! Will you ever do a review of your KR4's? Have you tried Anduril 2 yet?
Yes, of course! KR4 will be review soon, song with KR1 I think. I tried Anduril 2, but some experimental versions and I like it so far. As soon as I get my 2 E12R from fireflies I would probably do a Anduril 2 manual as well.
Awesome video. Thank you very much. You do not happen to have one made, how to upgrade the version? 😜
Not yet, sorry ;)
Its been 3 months since I got a d4v2.
All i know is anduril... And breathing
It not as hard as it seems. You can do it 😉
very nicely explained and easy to learn. well done. can you or do you have sofrin sp36 pro if yes then make review on that.
Thank you. Actually I have the review of SP36 Pro already on my channel. I encourage you to take a look 😉
@@FlashlightEnthusiast sure i will . I reset my sp36 and before reset it ramps down slowly from turbo mode after 40 seconds but now even after one and a half minutes it keeps steady at turbo mode.
@@FlashlightEnthusiast can u plz tell me how to set to save it from burning.
If you set the temperature to 50*C it should be getting less hot than now. I suspect you set it much higher, even accidentally
@@FlashlightEnthusiast thanks for reply. Can u tell me in simple words to enter into thermal configuration and set to 50 temp? Really appreciate.
quite complicated.
Once you get it it becomes very intuitive and easy. Don't get discouraged by the graph. You won't use all those features at once anyway.
I'm too retarded for this ui,just give me a high,med,low and moonlight mode.
Than I am afraid you have to stick to other UI options. Stepped ramping without any other functions is pretty straightforward though
