Hey there! Looking to see if someone knows the answer... I have 2 K7 pro V3 and one A8se Max in different tanks, I prefer the look of the A8, but I have found the K7s to be more reliable... If I lose wifi and power the A8 does not revert to its schedule and settings unless wifi becomes available, whereas the K7 hosts its own wifi signal and is not dependent on home internet, so it never skips a beat even after long power outages and wifi loss...
This is a problem if I lose connectivity while away from home for the A8...
Like I stated I prefer the look so I would like to switch all my lights to the A8 but this is a pretty big flaw when it comes to reliability. Has anyone encountered this issue and/or a solution?
I can see that the app has a direct connect mode feature that lets you directly control the light similar to the k7s as it hosts its own AP connection but I'm not sure if it "saves" the settings after a power loss in that state....
I don't care about wifi control I just want them to go back to their settings after power outages
Thanks
