Can two or all color elements be activated at the same time? If so, what other colors result (4 by my count)?

Virtually any color... depending on the accuracy placement of the LED pellets and their relationship in position to the end of the lamp, All have some curvature (magnification) and the purity of the color or evenness of the 'beams' from each LED when viewed directly or the LED's reflection. Be aware that the primary colors viewed with a spectroscope will consist of varying levels of red, green and blue... It's the human eye that perceives or blends the subjective color created by the sum of the red, green and blue colors.. Somewhat long winded but a simpler explanation would not be accurate enough. While the blend can make many colors the prime energy is still red, green and blue.

All three colors can be activated at the same time or different times. You can have almost any color, everything dependa of the amount of current that you use for each color. It's like in a computer with a pixel of color of RGB.

Yes. Sure, four colors would result if each element is activated at a 100% duty cycle. But thousands of shades can be created by using combinations of different percentages of each color element following the RGB scheme. Refer to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RGB_color_model for more info.

you can have any color on at any time. depending on how you wire this up, you could have red,green, or blue or all 3 on to give white. Or if you control the led with an IC, like an arduino and use PWM(pulse width modulation), you can have 8 bits of color data per channel, giving you over 16 million possible color combinations. You can basically make any and all colors with this led depending on how you use it.

All three colors can be activated at the same time, for this you will need the proper resisters. You can vary the color combinations to achieve almost any color you want by using a PWM (pulse width modulator) driver to vary brightness to each channel.

Almost all of the colors of the rainbow. I did successfully hook three together. Four does not work.

Just one color at a time about 4 seconds between each transistion and it does show each of those colors individually. Still pretty awesome!

All colors and they transition into the next color. The colors off hand I remember from mine are: blue, purple, pink, red, orange, yellow, green and every color in between. You can choose of you want it to change colors or stay at one. Hope this helps!

No, you can't program it to just display one color. It is pretty low level colors that are emitted anyway.

One mode just stays constant, the other turns on by adding one color at a time to the rainbow. It is supposed to cycle with that but min doesn't really do that, so once the rainbow is all on it stays on

You can set it to one color or variable. Takes a little reading to understand how, but it is possible.

It changes automatically there is no way to set it to a specific color.it changes about every 3 seconds. For the price it's a great product and fun :)

You can control the color manually, choosing between 0/50%/100% for red, blue, and green

I don't think you can. You can use the sequential RYB. I have only used the individual colors one at a time.

NoIn fact, you can not set it up to cycle just the colors you want. It cycles all colors.

It will still be multi-coloured, although it will not blink, it will consistantly pulsate random colour, Good luck with youre project!

It can be set up to an individual color, or flash between all 16 colors. But, unfortunately, it cannot flash between just 2 colors. We have just on green right now for Christmas.

You can set it to a specific color, but I've noticed that my unit starts flashing in different colors anyway, if I let it idle.

Yes you can pick one color. The center button gives you this option. Press it about 3 or 4 times until you reach the settng you want.

I don't think you can combine colors. I do 20 minutes per color once a day while on my back listening to an audio book.

There is a switch on the bottom of the light. In order to get the multicolors, one must press the switch slowly, about eight times to get the multicolored light effect. All the colors blink on that setting!
