sunray mini elite lighting issue

3 posts
  1. I'm actually trying to figure out if this is an issue or if it isn't. After i initially turn on my lighting system at the pod, a green light flashes and doesn't turn off. Even when i turn the lights off at the handle and turn it off at the battery pod it continues blinking. Is this suppose to happen? I would think it would drain the battery. Can't think of why it would continuously blink. The battery has a full charge and the light works perfectly.

     

    Any help would be much appreciated.

  2. This might be totally wrong, but I seem to recall that the the lights flash for 30 minutes after they were last on, to show that the battery pods remain in the standby mode ready to receive IR signals via housing handles. Take another look after 30 minutes etc. and see if they stop flashing.

  3. Yeah, you were right...i just got this email from L&M....

     

    Hi Jesse,

    What you're describing is normal. When that green light is on, that means that the pods are awake and "listening" for the IR signal from the housing. After about 20 minutes of inactivity, the pods go from "standby" to "off," and the green light will turn off.

     

    When the batteries have a full charge, the green light will blink about once per second. When they get low, the light will blink quickly, about three times per second.
