They should allow you owners to pay for an upgrade and ship out your old fixtures for the new cree illuminas.

That may be an option but I personally don't think it's a worth while upgrade for existing Illumina owners... My guess is that the choice to move to CREE was for marketing reasons. The CRI on the Rebel's is near perfect and they put out plenty of light.

Too bad I just got mine about a month ago. But to be honest, it has more light power than I need. I have to scale down to 45% white, 70% blue, and 90% royal blue.

But I do wish they have more blue and royal blue LEDs than the white ones. Right now each module has 8 white, 4 blue and 4 royal blue.

On the light controls did you set it to Expert Mode? Once you do that you can program the advanced functions...

What size Illumina did you get? I can send you my config file that you can use as a starting point to set your fixture up with the advanced features and settings.

Cheers!
