Does anyone have experience with their Kessils? I have 4 K-linked together. For some reason I have been having issues with them “shorting out”. I’ve narrowed it down to being a dongle issue. When I try to add my dongle back on it shuts down all the lights. I’ve had this dongle attached for years so I’m not quite sure why it would be an issue. I have a second, new dongle for my fuge light and I’m getting the same issue when i use that one on my main lights. This is driving me insane. This all started when I was doing some reading and was told I need to raise my lights because I use the reflectors. Speaking of raising lights I’m also having an issue where I can’t get my car right light to adjust. It looks clean but I can only assume salt got into the mount. I’ve tried putting vinegar on it and I’ve tried forcing it but nothing is working…

does the kessil have salt buildup in the input on the light.
Perhaps you need a new controller for the lights, I suggest the Kessil Spectral Controller X. and get rid of the dongle, they are a problem.
The Kessil Dongle need to connect to 2.5GHZ not 5.0 GHZ. trying to connect to 5.0 will cause it to fail.
Also unstable connections to your router will cause issue such as shutting down.
So if you upgraded your wifi service to only 5.0 then thats the problem.
When you say shorting out are you hearing a buzz or is this just the words you using to say shuts off.
trying to help ya...
