    Do you run softwater to all cycles?

    Going from 8 options to 12 in SS bays

    Color Wash, Amazing!

    This looks awesome man! Question...I have rows of townhouses behind my location that probably would appreciate the disco lights all night long. Can you set them to run alternate colors until say 10pm and then be steady white through the night?
