My kessil a160we had a massive drop in intensity today. I run the spectral x controller at 55% and noticed that the light seemed greenish. I disconnected the controller and noticed that if the intensity was turned to max it appeared near the 50% from yesterday. I also have a spare 160 and plugged it in to the same power supply and the intensity seemed normal.
I am new to reef tanks and kessil lighting and purchased the light used, here around August.
Is it normal for lights to degrade around 50% in one day? Also has anyone opened these lights up to try to fix a broken one?
Thank you for looking and or any replies.
 
i have a 360we tuna blue and i have not noticed any kinda of decrease of miss coloring of the light ! thats definltly issue !
if its used id say not normal and its probably is going bad. Maybe you can contact kessil about a replacement. wink wink.


if you have experience with board level repairs you could probably repair it everything electrical can be repair if you have the time, experience, and material.
