M44 Bug? (self.flashlight)

I just received my M44, and I'm experiencing weird behavior with the aux lights. Whenever I turn off the light, the aux quickly flashes red then goes to cyan for about 4 seconds before returning to my selected color. Is anyone else experiencing something similar?

Edit: That was with sofirn 3000 mAh batteries. With P28As, it only does the quick red flash.

It's not covered very well in the text manual, but it sounds like it might be the post-off voltage display. The sequence from full to low is purple --> blue --> cyan --> green --> yellow --> red. If that's not it, then you might try factory resetting (13H).

I did some more testing, and it seems you're right. Although, after factory resetting it still does the same thing. Looks like it's the default, and I don't see where to go to it in the UI.

It's a bit convoluted. You can find it in my diagram in the Voltage Config box. You have to do it from the Advanced UI.

As already mentioned, this is the post-off voltage display. Depending on your firmware version, its time can be changed from the battcheck menu. Set to 0 to turn it off.

The red flash is a bug that already got fixed (together with several other bugs). Do you have a flashing kit for updating the firmware?
