Yes: https://github.com/reef-pi/reef-piIs this on GitHub? I'd like to contribute if possible.
Neat. It does not let you control the outlet from outside programs .I saw this and thought it would be a good add for a reef-pi

yesThis brings up another question / development suggestion. I have a bunch of these (or something on another label but from what I've seen I think most are Tuya/SmartLife frameworks). They can be controlled though simple curl commands through IFTTT or through integrations with the Tuya HomeAssistant component. Are there plans to have Reef-pi integrate with IFTTT or send some simple web requests? POST / GET requests can integrate with IFTTT webhooks for very basic integration. Combined with the Reef-pi API this could be a very low cost option for automating on/off switches.
So i have been creeping on this post for a while, and I am very interested in it. But im just wondering, how much do ppl have invested in these Pi-controllers? Just want to know if is dramatically cheaper then buying a pre-built on I.E. Apex and so on. TIA!
Just had a read, great job Ranjib!The very first adafruit guide on reef-pi: installation and demonstration, is live now

Hi Bryan,
Warm welcome to reef2reef, you’ll love it here.
reef-pi lighting module is not any specific type aware , it allows you to set intensity profile of any type of led light. We have build guides for the circuit part, that depends on the specific light type. In short you can use the same feature that’s used to simulate day light cyclc , for moon light cycle also. We do not have any seasonal pattern thing, if you have any details around it , I’m all ears and would love to implement it in next major release.
I use a coralife actinic blue led strip as moon light in one of my tank , that’s controlled by reef-pi. Here is a photo of the circuit,
This a power source (12v 2amp) , a raspberry pi , an lm2596 module and the light itself, is all you need

I am working on the adafruit guides, hence the photos were already there
Happy reefing ,

Can you upgrade to the alpha release . Due to an ui bug , timers were saved in disabled state in beta-7 , we fixed it in alpha 0My Equipment timers stopped working last week. I can turn my relays on/off manually, but the time on/off cycles do not happen.
I’ve rebooted, upgraded to Beta7 (from 6), and deleted and re-created the timers.
Any suggestions?
Actually , I don’t know . I only run kessil and coralife actinic strips . I know others have used different lights with reef-pi. Do you know what’s the control voltage for reefbrite ?Is this what I would need to male to control a SB Reef Light?
did you see any error in the log? thats strange. Any sudden changes, like reboot?I’ll give Alpha a try, but it occurred with beta-6 out of the blue, after working for weeks.
