Been a very longtime since I posted on this site.

I picked these lights up for my 80g DT, 48x24x16, to replace my hanging lights - Ocean Revive 120w.
The lights seem well made for the price and are very bright. Overall I am happy with them but a few drawbacks.

Negative:
1) Remote not well made, no timer option
2) No led display on light. Must use preset or count how many clicks adjusted per channel
3) App Magic Home not very intuitive. I figured out the timer by ramp-up/down could not. I had to contact vendor and they emailed my instructions. Seems to an involved process but will try this weekend. I included a few pics below.

Positive:
1) Well made
2) Very bright
3) Has wifi
4) Has ramp/up down faeture - app only
5) Has timer - app only

To me seems fine. have not had any real concerns with hat. The pics don't really show that unfortunately.
 
I recently bought the same lamp, I liked it, it seems to me that it has a lot of power, but the application is very poorly designed, it seems like a disaster to me, you cannot make a sunrise with a smooth power ramp, it is very scaled.
Something particular happens to me, that while it is working through WIFI all the time the cooler is on, I made this clarification to the manufacturer and they tell me that this is normal, that since it is a PWM cooler I should not worry about losing useful life. I don't believe him, so what I do is connect it to a smart plug and 15 minutes before it turns on via Wi-Fi I give it power so that the cooler doesn't have another 16 hours on without need
 
Hi, just got this light, bit more complicated set up than I’m use to, anyone willing to share a pic or their settings
 
Hi guys, do you have any user manual of the lamp? I can’t find the Wi-Fi of the lamp on my phone and I don’t know what I can do.

Thanks
