Pentair Lights

[Cayman]

Is there ANY way possible, be it a hack, add-on or any other way, to choose a color on Pentair lights, other than the 5 color that are in the app?

If you use any of the 6 mood presets, clearly there are colors and blends there that I see, but no way of selecting them.



Thanks in advance.

I want to see if anyone comes out of the woodwork with a hack.

None have ever been posted here and I think if anyone did it they would show it off. But you never know.

Any hack would have to be on the IntelliBrite board in the light fixture and basically redesign the LED control logic. That is not simple.

I don’t know what type of hack you are expecting. It is not going to be done externally through the light control wires.

I’m obviously not familiar with any of this, but thought there may be some trick. The mood settings have some great colors that I would love to get the pool to stay on. Who knows, but definitely not me.

Yes. Run a lightshow (e.g. "Romance"), and when it transitions to a color you like, select "SAVE". To display that color constantly, select "RECALL".

Thanks! If this works I’ll be happier than pig in… well you know.

I’ll try it tonight. Thank you.

Worked like a champ. Although I never had to hit recall. I clicked Save… the lights went out for about 15 seconds then came back on that color.

Thanks a million!

Your "saved" color is still available as another constant color in addition to the standard white, blue, green, red, and magenta. Just select "RECALL".
