Understanding Aux LED Colors in Anduril 2

A complete guide to auxiliary LED colors and modes in Anduril 2 flashlights. Learn how to cycle colors, set voltage-based indicators, and which lights support RGB aux.

What Are Aux LEDs?

Auxiliary LEDs (aux LEDs) are small indicator lights on the body of a flashlight — usually around the button or on the head. They serve two purposes:

  1. Finding your light in the dark — a dim glow helps you locate the flashlight on a nightstand or shelf.
  2. Battery voltage indication — color-coded glow tells you the charge level at a glance.

Which Flashlights Have RGB Aux LEDs?

Not all Anduril flashlights have aux LEDs, and not all aux LEDs are RGB (multi-color). Here's a quick breakdown:

LightAux Type
Emisar D4V2RGB aux (head) + single-color button LED
Noctigon KR4RGB aux (head)
Emisar D4KRGB aux (head)
Wurkkos TS10RGB aux (head)
Lumintop FW3ANO aux LEDs
Convoy S2+NO aux LEDs
Wurkkos TS21Single-color side switch only

If your light only has a single-color aux or no aux at all, the color-cycling commands will have no visible effect.

How to Change Aux LED Colors

From OFF (Anduril V2)

  • 7C (7 clicks) — Cycle through aux LED modes: Off → Low → High → Blink → Breathe → Voltage → Voltage + Blink
  • Each mode cycles through colors: Red → Yellow (RG) → Green → Cyan (GB) → Blue → Purple (RB) → White (RGB)

From Lockout (4C from OFF)

  • 7C — Same color cycling, but for the lockout aux configuration. You can set different aux behavior for OFF vs. Lockout.

Voltage-Based Color Mode

One of the most useful aux modes is voltage indication:

  • 🔴 Red = Low battery (≤ 3.0V)
  • 🟡 Yellow = Medium-low (~3.3V)
  • 🟢 Green = Medium (~3.6V)
  • 🔵 Blue = Full charge (~4.0V+)

This gives you an instant visual battery check without turning the light on.

Aux LED Brightness

Aux LEDs have two brightness levels that cycle with 7C:

  • Low — very dim, ideal for bedroom use
  • High — brighter, easier to find in well-lit areas

Common Mistakes

  1. "My aux colors won't change!" — Your light might not have RGB aux LEDs. Check the table above.
  2. "I changed aux in OFF but Lockout still has the old color" — OFF and Lockout have separate aux configs. Change both independently.
  3. "The aux LEDs turn off when I turn the light on" — This is normal. Aux LEDs only show when the main emitter is off.
