Well dag nabit! As my kessils were slowly dimming down towards the end of the light cycle tonight I noticed that one of them didn't have any blue and all that you could see was red and green. I use a the spectral controller so they both should be showing the same colors. Here are some pics...

Here's the good one.

Here they are on a low power setting, good one then the bad one.

One of my Maxspect Recurve lights has a similar issue. The two strip lights on the side are down to mostly just red LEDs.

That reminds me of the red ring of death on the old Xboxs haha! I hope you get this figured out. Kessils are very nice. I bought some of the AliExpress A7 knockoffs recently and I like them.

Very interesting. I've never bought anything off of AliExpress. The prices are staggeringly low. I have so many questions. Going to PM you.
