Review on Kessil A360X Tuna Aquarium Light Fish & Aquatic Pets by Elizabeth Anderson

Revainrating 3 out of 5

A technical breakthrough, but...

Kessil's lighting engineering team has made significant advances in LED technology. Unfortunately, they chose Team B to develop the key and control app. This light needs an external application to implement all functions. The currently offered application and the key do not work. I spent hours fixing a key that was intermittently failing. My iPhone couldn't see the dongle's Wi-Fi signal: My iPad could, but then said there was no signal. This seemed to indicate a hardware failure. Revain replaced the block. The new one just broke. An uninitiated user performs the setup only to be told that he or she needs to verify that the LAN is connected. It was connected to my two keys. The application then returns to inform the user that the local network is connected. it refuses to let the user do anything other than fix what isn't broken. Whatever the real reason, it's a terrible design. Incidentally, for reasons unrelated to Kessil's problems, I replaced my router with a top-of-the-line device. I set up a new router before attempting to install the second key. I also set up three phones, an iPad, a MacBook, an Apple TV, a gamepad, a Windows PC, and various apps that used a specific route to access the internet. In other words, I know how to set things up. i keep the light It's a violin, but it can be controlled by hand. Other aquarists should be careful not to set them too high. You are powerful. I've planted two onions in my 75 gallon and anything over 1/3 of the setting is causing excessive algae growth. Just don't waste your money on a key.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Reliability
