Wurkkos TS10 Manual
The Wurkkos TS10 is a compact, powerful EDC flashlight powered by a single 14500 Li-ion battery. It runs Anduril 2 firmware, giving it the same deep feature set found on enthusiast lights like the Emisar D4V2, but in a much smaller package.
The TS10 is available in several variants with different hardware, which affects which Anduril 2 features are available to you. See Which TS10 do you have? below to identify your variant.
This guide covers TS10-specific behavior and the most commonly needed Anduril 2 operations. For the complete Anduril 2 reference, see the full Anduril 2 Manual.
Which TS10 Do You Have?
There are three firmware variants for the TS10. The easiest way to tell which you have is by looking at the aux LEDs (the small LEDs around the main emitters):
| Variant | Aux LEDs | Max Power | How to identify |
|---|---|---|---|
| Original TS10 | Single color | Full FET | Aux LEDs are one color only (no color changing) |
| TS10 V2 (RGB aux) | RGB (multiple colors) | Full FET | Aux LEDs cycle through colors; earlier production runs |
| TS10 V2 (RGB aux, low-FET) | RGB (multiple colors) | 50% FET | Aux LEDs cycle through colors; newer production runs (mid-2024+) |
Why the low-FET variant exists: Starting mid-2024, some TS10 units shipped with LEDs that have lower forward voltage. Running full FET power on these units can destroy the LEDs. The low-FET firmware caps direct-drive output at 50% to prevent this. If you have a newer TS10 V2, make sure your firmware is up to date.
The two RGB variants are functionally identical in terms of UI. The only difference is maximum brightness at the top of the ramp.
Specifications
- Emitter: 3x CSP LEDs (90+ CRI), available in 4000K and 6000K (3000K on brass/copper variants)
- Battery: 1x 14500 Li-ion (AA-size rechargeable)
- Aux LEDs: Buyer-selectable single-color (original) or RGB (V2)
- Firmware: Anduril 2
- Body: Available in aluminum (black, orange, green), titanium-copper, copper, brass
- Charging: No onboard charging; remove the head to swap or charge the battery externally
- Water resistance: IPX8 (submersible to 2m)
Variants: The TS10 family also includes the TS10 SG (single SFT-25R emitter, more throw) and TS10 MAX (18650 battery, 3x Nichia 519A). These share the TS10 form factor but may have different firmware configurations.
Quick Start
After inserting a 14500 battery and tightening the tailcap, the light blinks once to confirm it has power.
| Button | Action |
|---|---|
| Click | Turn on / off |
| Hold | Change brightness (ramp up) |
| Release and hold again quickly | Ramp the other direction |
| Double click | Turbo |
That covers basic use. The TS10 ships in Simple UI by default, which limits the available features to keep things straightforward.
Button Presses
Button presses are abbreviated using a simple notation:
| Button | Meaning | |
|---|---|---|
1C |
One click | Press and then quickly release the button |
1H |
Hold | Press the button, but keep holding it |
2C |
Two clicks | Press and release quickly, twice |
2H |
Click, hold | Click two times, but hold the second press |
3C |
Three clicks | Press and release quickly, three times |
3H |
Click, click, hold | Click three times, but hold the final press |
The same pattern is used with higher numbers too. For example, 10C means
ten clicks, and 10H means ten clicks but hold the final press.
Simple UI
The TS10 starts in Simple UI, which provides basic flashlight functions with a limited brightness range for safety.

TS10 note: 2C turbo is set to Anduril 1 style by default,
meaning it jumps straight to full power rather than the Anduril 2
ceiling-then-turbo behavior.
TS10 note: The mid-ramp blink indicator is disabled on the TS10.
Lockout Mode
4C from Off or from Ramp to enter lockout. This prevents
accidental activation in a pocket or bag.

Sunset Timer
While the light is on, 5H starts a countdown timer. Keep holding and each
blink adds 5 minutes. The light slowly dims to the lowest level, then turns
off.
Battery Check
3C from Off. The light blinks out the battery voltage. For example,
4.16V blinks as: 4 blinks, pause, 1 blink, pause, 6 blinks. In Advanced UI
it repeats; in Simple UI it displays once and turns off.
A full 14500 reads around 4.20V and empty is about 3.00V, same as 18650.
Aux LEDs
This is one of the biggest differences between TS10 variants. On all TS10 models, the aux LEDs turn off while the main emitters are on and resume their configured pattern when the light is turned off or enters lockout.
Original TS10 (Single-Color Aux)
The original TS10 has a single-color front-facing aux LED. The color was selected at purchase (options included red, orange, green, blue, and ice blue) and is fixed on your unit. It works as a simple indicator light with these modes:
- Off
- Low
- High
- Blinking
Configure with 7C in Off or Lockout mode to cycle through these
options.
When battery voltage is low, the aux LED will fast-blink as a warning.
Not available on the original TS10: RGB color cycling, voltage color display, rainbow mode, disco mode, police color strobe.
TS10 V2 (RGB Aux)
The TS10 V2 has RGB aux LEDs with full color support. You get separate aux LED settings for Off mode and Lockout mode, so you can tell at a glance whether the light is locked.
| Button (in Off or Lockout) | Action |
|---|---|
7C |
Next aux LED mode (off / low / high / blinking) |
7H |
Next aux LED color |
Available colors:
- Red
- Yellow (Red+Green)
- Green
- Cyan (Green+Blue)
- Blue
- Purple (Blue+Red)
- White (Red+Green+Blue)
- Disco (fast random colors)
- Rainbow (slow color cycle)
- Voltage (color indicates battery level: red is low, purple is full)
Voltage mode is popular for the TS10 V2. It lets you check battery status at a glance without turning the light on. Colors follow rainbow order: red (low) through purple (full).
Thermal Behavior
The TS10 is a very small light pushing a lot of power. It runs hot quickly, and the firmware has aggressive thermal management to protect it.
TS10-specific thermal settings:
- Default thermal ceiling: 50°C
- Minimum thermal stepdown: level 60 out of 150 (the light won’t thermally step down below this level)
- Aggressive throttle: above approximately 50% power, thermal regulation kicks in faster than on larger lights
Sustained turbo is not recommended on any TS10 variant because the light is overpowered for its size and LED type. Expect the light to step down from turbo within seconds.
Thermal Config Menu
From Off, the thermal config menu is accessible via the full Anduril 2 manual config menu instructions. The two settings are:
- Current temperature: click once per degree C to calibrate
- Temperature limit: click once per degree C above 30 (e.g., click 20 times for a 50°C limit; default is 45°C)
Factory Reset
The TS10’s tailcap is glued at the factory and not designed to be removed (you remove the head instead to change batteries). This makes the traditional loosen-tailcap factory reset method impractical. Instead, use the soft factory reset:
From Off, do 13H (thirteen clicks, hold the last one) for about 4
seconds. The light should flicker while getting brighter, then briefly burst
to full power. Hold until it reaches full power to complete the reset, or
let go early to abort.
If counting to 13 is tricky, try counting like music:
1 2 3 4
2 2 3 4
3 2 3 4
HOLD
A factory reset returns the light to Simple UI and recalibrates the temperature sensor. It’s a good idea to do this when you first get the light.
Features NOT on the TS10
The following Anduril 2 features are covered in the full manual but do not apply to the TS10:
- Dual-channel / tint ramping. The TS10 has a single emitter channel.
The two PWM channels (7135 regulator + FET) both drive the same LEDs; they
are not independent. There is no tint ramp, channel switching, or
3Htint adjustment. - Police color strobe. Not available on the original TS10 (requires RGB aux). Available on the TS10 V2.
