User Interface: (Anduril V2)

This flashlight uses the open-sourced Anduril user interface. 

By default, this flashlight begins in Simple UI with 5 brightness levels. Enter the hidden Advanced UI to access additional features and more configuration options. Details can be found in Anduril User Guide. 

Charging

Stellar X4 features an intelligent 10W battery charger. For optimal charging, use a USB-C port that can source 5V 3A. Upon the start of charging, the side-switch illuminates red. When charging is complete, the red indicator turns off. A flashing red indicator indicates a charge fault.

For battery safety, cells below 3V are pre-charged at 100mA before the full 10W charge starts, transitioning to constant voltage, and ending with trickle-charging. The charger includes a 10-hour safety timer to prevent extended charging.

While not recommended, the flashlight may be used while charging, but if operated at higher power levels than the charging rate, the battery will not be charged. 

• PS: X4 might work as a powerbank on some devices, like older mobile phones with OTG, USB OTG Power-bank (5V 1.2A) - activate in momentary mode. (Not all USB-C to C cables will charge your phone or device; you may need OTG-specific or charging-only cables.)  Do not take X4 powerbank function as a feature, it is just a bonus if it happens to work with some of your devices.

Battery Level Indicator

Anduril2 UI uses the front RGB auxiliary LEDs to indicate the current battery level upon turn-off. The colors correspond as follows:

This post-off display can be turned off or configured in Anduril.

Operation Notes

• Stellar X4 is a high-performance flashlight capable of up to 40W and generates a lot of heat. Please understand that this is not a toy and should be handled with safety.
• To prevent accidental activation of the flashlight, it is recommended to lock-out the flashlight (4 clicks from off to lock or unlock) before storage, or unscrew the body slightly as a mechanical lock-out. 
• Stellar X4 has low-voltage protection which cuts off power at 2.8V. It is recommended to begin recharging the cell before this happens to increase battery longevity.
