Triple v5 R33 Engine - 4th LED, 30w limit, Screen Programable, Dual Mode Groups

Update
For easier access, there is now also a 55C temperature setting in the same LOAD menu - above fast switch timing

When logged in to my account and the LOAD menu is dropped, is when I get "Public You Cannot Edit It" as I move my cursor over the options. What to do from here? Quazzle explained it but I am apparently lacking the required number of brain cells.

Lets start from the top. Do you see your email address next to the LOG OUT button?

I'll try to post a video on my timing issue, I'm having a very hard time changing modes constantly. I have to try 2 to 4 times before I can get it, I've tried fast and regular timing.

When you click the down arrow and then LOAD, do you see the yellow text at the top?:

I drew a quick diagram to try an explain what I'm experiencing. It may be exaggerated and not accurate but I think it accurately conveys my point. The filled in section represents the window of time you have to switch modes within one second. The top diagram is the factory timing, the middle is the faster mode timing, and I would like to check if the last is feasible. I think the last mode timing would be the most versatile and eliminate the need for multiple programing options, it's seems to be how the majority of my lights are configured.

mk2rocco - I understand what you are looking for and I would agree with you. I just loaded the fast switching program this morning and although I am having an easier time with the switching I still sometimes click too fast and end up on the same level. When I knowingly try to wait for the right switch time I sometimes overshoot too.

Is there any reason that we haven't thought of to keep the 0.0 - 0.35 second time not part of the switching program?

I'm glad i'm not alone on this, I did not carry my light today at work for just this reason.

The timing is not a show stopper for me, but I think we could probably tweak it to be better.

Sorry for the difficulty. Let me do some testing.
I may also check a few things via PM.

Great! I'm at work but have reception depending on my location.

Why can't I get this thing into programming mode? I've tried slow, fast, and everything! the video makes it look so easy. I have a reverse clicky which sucks.

 

[mk2rocco]

Maybe try keeping your switch in the on position and use it like a twisty.

Bypass switch. Use a paperclip to tap the clicks like you're a Morse Code operator. Way more control. I used this trick for programming Vinh's DriverVN. Reverse clicky makes it annoying.

I would suggest this as well.

Have we had any luck with the testing? +1 to the switch timing mk2rocco described.

They have identified the root of the timing issue, but it's going to take a while to implement the revision.

Ok. Thanks for the info. Is this something that can be programmed into the existing board or will we need to modify/update hardware?

I also find differences with my fingers. First (pointer) providing more control than my thumb, in this case.

If I can ask a different question real quick: Is this where the batch of modded heads will be announced, or will it be in a different thread?
