I have a Kessil 360 X and a new Apex, can I use the Apex to set up the light to the spectrum I want and then remove the Apex and just set the light on a light timer? Will the 360 X retain the settings? Thanks In advance.

Just plug the light into any outlet (not apex) and just use the dongle. I never found it necessary to use the apex to control lighting other than turning on/off a fuge light. Especially a fixture that has a perfectly good app.Thanks everyone, I guess I should watch some videos on it, so if I use the App I must have the dongle?. Or again I can use the Apex. I have always in the past, I would just turn the knob and use a light timer, no ramping.
I guess I am trying to limit the wire madness one gets with everything reefing. I got to buy this wire oh you want o do that you need to buy another wire, I kind of like my AI Prime HD's because they are all tidy.
We sell a good amount more spectral controllers than WiFi dongles which will surprise many people. Ultimately both offer the same actual light control it is just a question of whether you prefer to use an app or a wired controller.It seems that the Dongle and Spectral X are the same money, any preferences?
I have both and highly suggest the dongle. The controller does not have a battery for the time, and will lose time and date after every power outage.It seems that the Dongle and Spectral X are the same money, any preferences?
The controller actually does have a battery but I am not sure how long it lasts. I have shipped people preprogrammed controllers and it has kept the time I set before shipping. However, this is not the case for my 10 year old controller I bought with my original 360s so there does appear to be some degradation in battery life.I have both and highly suggest the dongle.

I contacted Kessil over the matter, and the customer rep said that it is normal for the Spectral X controller to lose time and date when power is off to it. Mine has never kept the time and date, even when new.The controller actually does have a battery but I am not sure how long it lasts.
