Light timing gone wrong

[Danvl1991]

Hi all

I purchased a second hand tmc v2 ilumenair compact a few months back for my nano reef, i had an issue where it wouldnt connect to my router but i gave up, set it up and left it, its been running fine ever since, but about a week ago i noticed it wasnt doing what it should be when it should be, went back into the settings and noticed the time was wrong, set the time again but it was exactly the same the next day, i set the time once again and checked an hour later and the clock was 10 minutes slow, has anybody come across this before or know if theres a fix for it?

10min in one day is terrible!

Mine drift about 3 min a month difference so i reset the timer every few months to keep them in sync.

Might just be a poor quality timer or one on the fritz

Over 24 hours its about 3-4 hours out

If you want to try soldering, see if the manufacturer will send you a replacement timer

I have emailed the manufacturer and unfortunately they dont sell or stock any spare parts for that particular light
