Has anyone else experienced schedule glitches with the Mobius app? This morning I awoke to find all (3) of my Radion G5s off - when they should've been on and following the schedule I implemented (and have been using for months). Rebooting my iPhone, Mobius and even the lights did absolutely nothing. Everything was working fine just over 8 hours ago. Re-configuring the Radions with a saved template didn't work, either - all the lights were using settings from the previous interval, ie: @8am the Radions were using the @7am schedule instead of @8am.

Fortunately I had the configuration backed up and I was able to restore it from that, and I think things are back to normal. Under troubleshooting I found that the lights all had clock errors (12/8/13, respectively) - which is apparently normal unless it increases (I'll keep watching and check back later today). This is the first time in a year of using the Radions and Mobius that I've seen something like this happen.
 
I had this happen once. The fix was to re-sync the clock. It's an option in the Mobius app.
Thanks, I just re-sync’d the clock. It was out by 5 minutes, but I’m not sure this was the issue (the schedule was showing the correct time but running the light setting from the previous interval).

Further to my update yesterday, EcoTech got back to me and suggested I run verify settings under troubleshooting. Sure enough, each light had an exclamation point (indicating a problem), so it gave me a “resolve” option which seemed to fix everything.

The clock was again off today (-00:01:00), which I hope doesn’t become a recurring theme.

Seems like a pretty simple programming fix, no? My clock is off every time I check it.
It's not a programming issue, it's a hardware issue. They don't have proper real time clocks in them.

Which is not even close to acceptable in $1000 lights. $79 Chinese black boxes keep time fine.
