Kessil A360we set up questions

[GoReefin]

Hi all, recently purchased a new to me kessil a360we with controller and was wondering how to set up the timer function? Any help would be awesome thanks!

Pick one of the quick sets and set up your schedule. I have mine going for a total of 12 hours. 5 peak hours. With a ramp up and ramp down. I have mine at 85% intensity at peak but I recommend you start lower and work up.

Yeah going from an ai prime 16hd set at 26% it's going to be very low setting until I can acclimate them properly

Just figured it out thanks a bunch!

I keep mine mounted between 6 and 7" over the water

Oh nice I placed mine a bit higher around 12 inches as I was concerned about the intensity. It's over a 17g tank that's only 14 inches deep! Probably a bit overkill but I love the shimmer and color.

I would bring it down and adjust the light intensity. You can see the spill over. Highest I would go is 8".

Agreed that the actual light and shimmer from kessil is unmatched. I'd never go back to an LED that isn't single point like kessil.

There is an acclimation setting on the controlled also if you feel the need. Will slowly bring the lights up over a period of time.
