    Mine was on lunar cycle. Last few nights it has been just turning off about 30min after the ramp down period. Had a few visitors so that wouldnt do so now i just have it set for 10% blues at night

    i think you need 4% to get the full lunar cycle. if you go less you won't have lights during some parts of the moon phase. 4% is pretty damn bright. I've considered turning it off because it is so bright on some nights, but haven't messed with it yet.

    I had mine at 1% for both blues with lunar cycle on and felt it was to bright at night.
    now I have 1 blue at 1% and feel that as plenty of light at night.
    the lunar cycle won't work if lights are at 10% or higher found out by doing lots of reading and a few phone calls from where I got the lights.
    I found it hard to get help around from round here at my local shops because I did not get the lights there.
    I also found while trying to set the lights if you do not have wh or bl or rb showing in all spaces while setting the lights they will come on and mine were running at 50% in the middle of the night so do not leave it showing this - - it was bad.
