Vaughnmg Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 The backorder has given me some time to research the controller being used in conjunction with the Kessil a360WE... but I can't find much. Anyone have experience with using these 2 together? I know that the Kessil will only go to about 10% power before it shuts off, I'm not entirely worried about that as long as I can build up and then build down for dawn/dusk to some degree. Aside from that - pros/cons of using Bluefish with Kessil a360WE? Link to comment
rod00007 Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 Here is a video of them on my tank: I like the way they work with the bluefish but when you go to controlling them you can't use the knobs to adjust anymore. I think that is the only con I can think of. So this is my schedule for my kessil lights: morning: ramp up blue on both lights to 42% over 270 minutes Mid day: Ramp up to 50-60% percent blue and white over 180 minutes Evening: Ramp down to 35% blue's only 270 minutes Night: moon illumination only depending on where I am simulating last night it was 20% and I use UV 403nm stunners for this. on channel 5.

Jerry w. Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 I have three a360WE/Bluefish pendents. I am also going to hook up two additional Ecoxotic Pro all white LED's. I have the controller and the Power-PWM dimmer to control the ecoxotic. I'm sure I'll have questions configureing these. If I get these all working then anyone can. Jerry Link to comment
Jerry w. Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 My controller arrived this morning! I'll be setting it up in a bit and get back to you all on how it went. Jerry Link to comment
Jerry w. Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 I have it running. I'm using both my iPhone 4 and iPad Air, not at the same time. So far all is good. I have some questions about the time setup and channel setup. Where do I post those or just PM them to Spencer? Thanks Jerry Link to comment
Jerry w. Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 Ok, much better now. I now understand that the time is set once the app. confirms it. Next the channel setup was more understandable after get feedback from Spencer. Its all good now. I don't think the Kessils will go totally dark Link to comment
Jerry w. Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 The Kessils didn't go totally dark and now I know why. I didn't turn them all the way down. Once I did that they went dark as they were scheduled. Jerry Link to comment
