Anyone know of flashlights where you can play with firmware?
Oveready and Lux-RC are getting their feet wet with this.

Armytek used to offer a lot of "under the hood" settings fiddling in their 2.5 series (no longer available.) Formerly, we chould choose a flat runtime or diminishing output as well as setting the light for specific battery configurations. They broke with the past and no longer offer this as of 3.0 and later. Yeah, the UI was clunky for fine-tuning, but so what? CPF liked it.
Zebralight has a lot of programming and excellent UI (IMHO,) but afaik you cannot mess with regulation, max drive, that sort of thing.
There's a custom driver available on CPF that's pretty close to "the real thing," however flashing your own firmware isn't really supported at this time.
So how about it, CPF? What lights can we actually jailbreak? Tips and tricks?
