Chihiros WRGB 2 green hue

[Rishov]

Hi, I’m using a Chihiros WRGB for the last three years ,at first I used to run the lights at 100% light intensity with all three spectrums at 100% but back then the light spectrum used to be neutral white but recently since last year the light seems to be more on the greener tone with the same settings ,currently somehow I feel the blues r unable to balance out the greens and post ramp ups the light spectrum looks more greenish than neutral white ,it’s hard to capture the difference in camera but it’s enough to catch in sight .

Hi, turn off your current settings.
Switch to Manual mode, try to test each RGB channel separately .
1. R: slide from 0% to the max, G: 0%, B: 0%
2. R: 0%, G: slide from 0% to the max, B: 0%
3. R: 0%, G: 0%, B: slide from 0% to the max
See how would each channel work and if there's one channel couldn't work normally.

Hi,I tried the above mentioned solution but it seems to have the same problem ,During the first year as I mentioned above ,I ran all three channels at 100% but later on i shifted to more of red and blue heavy channels ,my current settings is currently R:95%,G:55%,B80%,so my question is that is it some how the , lesser use of the green channels compared to the over use of reds and blue some how caused the R and B diodes to warn out compared to the lesser used green channel and are unable to bace out the greens ?my lights r nearing 4-5 years mark too.

It seems not.
You can record a video of above steps for our technicians to check. Make sure the light panel and phone in one screen.

I’m unable to attach a video file on this platform,i see no options ,but according to my observation on the individual channel test ,the blue channel when turned to 100% to 0% took a few second time to reach max illumination compared to the red and green channels ,there was a 1-2 seconds slight dip where to light reached 70% intensity then took a sec time and then reached 100% even after directly increasing intensity by 100% compared to the other channels. And this minute detail was well observable by the naked
Eyes then the camera clip .

There was no this same issue before so tecnicians need to video to check.
Except testing the 3 channels you can set to 100% to show the green.
You can send video to info@chihirosaquaticstudio.com

As you can see in the image in the left,is running at all channels on 100% intensity compaired to the image towards the right which is at 100reds ,70greens and 100blues ,once’s increased beyond the range of 70% intensity in the green channels ,the lights spectrum tends to turn into this warm greenish looks ,my point is previously this didn’t happen and the light had a more brighter cool white look at all channels at 100% intensity now I have to reduce the greens below 70% to get a some what neutral white look ,i feel like I’m unable to utilise the max output of the light (PAR and colour temperature wise) to grow more demanding plant that require more light,thank you . @Administrator

It could be the firmware update, technicians changed the color ratio.
You can reduce the green percentage.

Can you please explain or elaborate about the firm wear update ,cause the light is this way since last 2 years ,and how can be warm greenish tones be an update ? It looks bad to the eyes and warm light isn’t good for plant growth either ?also I’ll not be able to use the light at it’s full capacity !

There is the firmware version in Device Information page, the update is irreversible.
