Hey guys, here's my latest FW3A t1616 mod. This time with orange, pink, and warm white aux

Just look at that moonlight ๐Ÿ‘€

MCU swap.

Ahh I see you have collected the Infinity Stones. How very impressive Mr. Adair.

[-] Adair21@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Perfectly balanced, as all things should be

[-] containerfan@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

You guys are knocking it out of the park with these MCU swaps. You'd think Lumintop would catch on, but instead they are killing the FW platform. So unfortunate.

When did you switched to 0402 LEDs?

Do you find them easier to manage?

[-] Adair21@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

A few months back. The 0603 emitters liked to stick together

[-] 677@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Love that aux combo!

[-] MasterNate@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Clean as always, beautiful work.

[-] toadiesss@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

A thing of beauty!

Ahh yes the hidden recipe: warm white + some kind of pink or purple + a third colour. Always amazing.

Thanks bro!

Mine! Lol

Seriously nice work!

Trying to figure LW out still

[-] solrize@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Wait, what exactly has happened here? Did you replace the whole driver in the FWAA? Was it an existing 1616 board where you swapped the leds, or what? I had somehow thought the FWAA was not an Anduril light.

[-] Adair21@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

This is the FW3A. I swapped the MCU on the driver from a t85 to t1616 with an adapter board that also has pads for RGB aux

[-] solrize@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago

Aha nice, and presumably the adapter has flashing pads too. Very nice work, though I don't understand why start with the FW3A to begin with. Sorry about the mixup with the FWAA.

[-] Adair21@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Yes it does, but you can only get to them when the driver is out.

Because I love the FW3A ๐Ÿ˜‚

[-] trakcon@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Very nicely done. I just ordered a bunch of Oshpark boards to try my hand at this. I just need to get some t1616's and some more tiny, tiny LEDs.

[-] zumlin@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Perfect soldering as expected. I can't help it but my OCD has made me notice that you have the red and blue wires swapped on the aux board, not that it matters in this light.

Also is that moonlight level? The lowest few levels acted weird before you disabled dynamic underclocking. I have been doing some experiments myself, with dynamic unclocking enabled and disabled. I ended up making a new smoother ramp while keeping it enabled.

Btw, what happened to your anduril2 fork? It is no longer visible on GitHub, did you make it private?

[-] Adair21@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Thanks! And they're not swapped. That's the correct order.

I disabled underclocking and set the default level to 3. 1 and 2 are very dim or don't work at all depending on the Vf of the emitters.

Yep, it's currently private

Thanks for continuing to post your excellent content on Lemmy!

[-] Adair21@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Absolutely. This is my new home
