Would it be possible to put some kind of color filter in front of the light to produce--for example-- a really dim blue light? UPDATE: The purpose would be simply to set some kind of mood. I guess my real question is: could you recommend a way of...

Greetings. If the color filter is suitable, it will work. But it may be hard to find the right color filter. Thank you.

Sorry you can't change it to the color you want, it changes color on it own in a random effect very fact. after two week mine store lighting up....bummer!!!

It should work just fine. If you use the two lights to create soft light on your subject, you won't have a lot of control over the amount of light on your background. So your background may be darker depending on how far away it is from the subject. That might be the desired effect though.

Work how? To set the white balance for a flash or strobe? if that is the question then yes! This thing is not magic it is a neutral color light filter just like the white dome on the Sekonic or old weston incident light meter. The is tone is neutral gray. Now if your question is will it set WB for a TTL flash set toauto every thing the ANSWER IS NO!. If you are bent on auto TTL flash metering then your WB needs to be set for flash on your camera or auto shoot on raw and use a good post software to tweak your color shift if you have any.

Most of these answers are blatantly wrong. There are three main "modes."1. Regular "on"2. dimmed "on"3. Strobe/Flashing.Turning it on/off quickly should get these effects.

There is a button on the bottom that allows u to change colors. That will hold the light at the color u desire if you don't want it to change Great lights

I had to fumble thru the timer until I figured it out, took me about an hour. I have seen other people say that you can email the company and they will send you the instructions. Not sure why they don't include them!Basically, options A B and C in the menu control the blue lights. D E and F control the day lights and G H and I control the moon lights. So set A for the time frame you want the blues to be on, D for the daylight hours and G for the moonlights. Hope that makes some sense.....

That is how it works... it has a remote for a reason.. use it to select color.. or justGive ur bulb to someone who appreciates the variety of color and go get a regular light bulb

You can only select from pre-programmed colors. There are several, but you can't precisely tune the color by mixing with this device.

No problem... Hold down the key on the far right bottom that looks like a light bulb, the push the arrow key next to it up till u get to the color u like. Very cool!

I have this and as far as I can tell you can't. But it does add a nice mood when lights are down low, so why would you?

My husband painted both sides of the panels with a chocolate brown paint. It looks amazing and completely filters the light! It took a long time, but was completely worth it. Good luck!

The color of my dash and instrument lights is red. I don't think it's too bright at night but try changing the color. Blue is nice and soothing at a dim setting even thought my lights are red I like changing the color to keep it interesting. Did you know the dimmer had a timer?

It should give off a little bit more more light. I also replaced with clear and LED(?) lights and I think it helped. I wished I found one that came with 6-8 light bulbs for more lighting, but I needed one that is simple yet conservative/elegant, less frills... I'm still very happy with this purchase.

This model has multiple colors you can select. you can even make your own colors with the RGB settings and have different colors for day- and nighttime with the dimmer function. I just installed mine today and it works amazing!

Hello, please excuse my delay in responding. I have all three of them in different light settings, two of them (one in the rear bedroom and one in the front bedroom) is completely dark and it really makes it look like there is someone inside watching TV. The other one is in a half lit living room, since there is only a lamp turned on, but it also makes anyone believe from outside that there is someone watching TV in the living room. No... Outside street lights do not affect it too much. As a matter of fact, I have a public city light directly across the street from my home where one of these units is sitting in the front bedroom. I would say the post where the city light is about 50 feet away from the window. I do not know if it can be set up with a timer, since I have not tried it, primarily because I have it set in automatic, where it turns on by itself right after dark which is when I need it and turns off at first light in the morning, just like I want it to. I hope this helps!

Yes, you can focus it on a small area and also change the level of illumination... look for hard to notice depression on side to turn on, turn up and turn off.Hope this helps
