EF Eri: dips
Observations by Kiyota-san and Itoh-san clearly shows
short-duration dips such as at 2022 Dec. 25.618 (UT).
These dips were not seen in every orbit but were
present almost on every night. The durations were
2-3 min and were 0.8-mag deep. Ingress was slower and
egress was sometimes sudden (within 30s).
Re: EF Eri profile
Berto Monard has provided observations on 2006 Mar. 11
(one of high states in the 2000s). The orbital profile
was similar to the current one (two maxima per period).
It was not always the case in the past. See e.g.:
