Tunze 8850 led blinking

[Sygnus]

Hi !

I have problem with my Tunze 8850 led, it starts flashing at the lowest strength. I'm using with 7097 controller.

When start dimming flashing, when i'm set any channel 1% its flashing, above dont have this problem....

I want moonlight to use 1%, but I do not know because it flashes.

Is this error known? power supply, lamp, control error?

Thanks for the help !

If it does not do this at anything above 1%, we can safely assume 1% is just not enough power to keep it on. Due to small variations in resistance and LED's it is likely too little current and the simple fix is to use 2%. This also sometimes happens with the pumps where 20% will cause them to stop, likewise just going to 21-22% solves it and this happens because in this case 1% is more likely .75% due to variation in the resistance.

Thank You for the answear !

This is only annoying when the moon phase is 4-5% and about 1% of the light is flashing, then it will blink.
