Kessil problems

[John Gemmel]

my a360 we tuna blue on a kessil controller is just flickering from on to off.. Any ideas light was bought back in Jan.

My first thought would be a loose wire, connector, or frayed wire.

Kessil is VERY good with warranty, and customer servi c e, so I would try and get in touch with them in the morning.

Also check your intensity level, anything below 20%ish can cause flickering.

I dont know about intensity lower than 20% causing flickering.... I've had both the 360 and 160's and none have ever flickered regardless of set intensity. They do turn on/off around 5% but again no flickering to speak of that I've seen.

If wiring all seems good and seated tightly then I would definitely contact Kessil.

Does the light flicker if you adjust it manually or only when using the controller? This might tell you if it's a cable or controller issue Vs the light.

Flickering below 20‰ may be too strong of a word. But the light output goes through small changes. I control mine with Apex.

Thanks for all the insight

Looked at all wires everything there looks good.. Fan still blowing

Lights are set to come on at 7 am and off at 6pm
Came home bout 3 and light was fine came home at 8 and light was flickering on and off like a strobe light..
Unplugged it for the night and plug up this morning same thing and my colors don't look the same

Try it without the controller. Use the nobs on the light. Could be the controller

Over heating or short in the plug-in.

If you unplug the controller does the light quit flickering?

Is your controller plugged into the input port and not the output port?

Have you added any new electrical items to your system?
