You have to unlock it by running all modes at 100% for an hour each.

just kidding. No, I’m sure many of us thought the same thing when we first looked at mobius. It would be nice to just select a night mode block that runs at whatever percentage of the mode preceding it, but choosing a constant speed is really the same thing.

I just set it to a slow lagoon during night hours.

not a bad idea. I’ve been using the transfer mode, with a sinusoidal curve.

Basically, if your only concern is pump life and not actual current/gas exchange, constant speed mode at 50% of your daily, or a transfer mode with linear or sinusoidal curve equals same pump wear as night mode (as long as the ending and starting modes have the same speed). Logarithmic is less wear than both.

This is what I run mine at for my 45. Yellow is lagoon. I can share my MP40s if you want in my 130.

I just have 5 percent constant. You can enable night mode using the driver although that defeats the purpose of mobius.
