Galabar Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 I had to connect to them with the Fluval app, which allowed them to turn off. Y2K strikes again! 😉  2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lonkley Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 (edited) You sure you just didn't miss the time change? Resync should fix them Eta; nevermind, didn't realize you answered yourself Edited March 11 by Lonkley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Resync should fix them Eta; nevermind, didn't realize you answered yourself I'm wondering if it was a combination of the leap year and time change. Did this happen to anyone else?

A quick phone sync sorted out the issue. Can confirm mine went off at night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greenspace Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 Whenever there's time change I always have to go into my Chihiros app to 'reset' things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichNJ Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 Similar with mine too…sometimes I just have to reconnect the lights to the app to reset everything.  The sunrise and sunset time will eventually drift a few minutes.  Also, I have one light 3.0 that doesn’t have a bright manual setting anymore (when you hit the override button to white on the light itself).  I have to use the app to crank the light for an override during maintenance time.

anewbie Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 Just an fyi; the new ai blade are programmed to handle day-light savings time 😉 I have the following lights: fluval plant 3.0 (5 in service); ai blade freshwater (6 in service); hygger (957 in service); chihiros wrgb 2 (2 in service); ghl Lx700[4,6] (serveral in service); so i am in a position to compare these lights - i will say that i did not experience any sort of y2k issue with my fluval the past week but i did of course have to connect to adjust for daylight savings time. I will also say i rather use an ap then the funky onboard setting thing for the hygger any day of the week (i run android in-case there is a difference between apple and android ap). Mind you most of these lights cost $$$; so while the hygger doesn't have an ap and it is a bit annoying to setup it only cost $ - and it has the ability to gently turn on in the morning something many more expensive lights lack.  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup. I have the nano for my cube and it definitely drifts. Also, last night it was still on after everything else. A quick reconnect to the app does the trick, but eventually it drifts again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spokanejared Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 I have the 2.0. Been there a few times over the 4 years I've had mine. Not sure why it happened but it hasn't changed my perspective. Fluval makes a killer light. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
