So I have a question that is bothering me for 2/3 days but I was hesitant to ask because it could be very simple but I am missing it but I give up so here it is..... Help me if you can:
To make it simple let's say 360 has only 3 color leds 10 diodes each. royal blue, blue and white.
Also let's say intensity is at 50% now let's do this: to me it has only two logical way to mix color. One is good and the other is not so much.
The Good way: in 50% intensity when you dial up color to 15%, 5 royal blue lights up. 30% 10 royal blue lights up. From 30% to 60% blue LEDs join in making the color less blue. From 60-100 white starts to join and make it white. So in the end at 100% color all the LEDs will be on at 50% intensity.
The not so good way: at 15% all the royal blue is on, at 30% all the blue is on and by 50% all the Whits are on as well.... Then at 80% royal blues are of, by 100% blus are also gone and only white remains.
Why the second one is bad? Well... If you running color and intensity at 100% you are not running the light at "100%".
Please tell me I have not lost my mind!!!
