View Full Version : Thunderstorm and illumination Question
Hi I have a question regarding dimming my ballasts in tunderstorm mode!
I have SimuL stick and 3 separete dimmable ballasts
Their is a procentage you can dim 100%/0%, this is very nice that they all dim but my question is can I also dim only two to 0% and one ballast to say 3% in a tunderstorm.
Because when I have 3 ballasts burning on 1% I dont see to much from my lightning.
Can you post screen shots of your "Settings" page? I think something else might be wrong there. I have mind dimming 100% (lights off) so that the Simu FLASH is more pronounced.
I might have missed this... are you running your other ballasts for lightning? I don't think you'd want to be making your ballasts do that ... I could be wrong... Are they T5 dimmable ballasts or MH dimmable ballasts?
for my setting (LED lights) I only have the SimuL and SimuSpot reacting to lightning and during the most intense portion of the storm all other lights are totally off (0%).
My Lights are T5 3 ballast 2x39W 1-10V Total bulbs 6
I dont want 0 % because than my Tank is complete dark with only some flashes
Illumination 1 and 2 are my SimuL 3, 4, 5 my T5 I have one photo as well from the settings from one T5 With it.

Maybe you can show me your settings?
Ahh show n tell? LOL! 2238
Just keep in mind that I'm only dimming one MAIN light (LED) and that light is not part of my "Lightning". I wonder if you should exclude your main lights from the Lightning portion and reply on just your Simu unit for lightning. I'm thinking that maybe the "100% dimming" is why you get little to no real lightning.
