How many color settings? How many intensity levels for each color setting? PS Thank you for all the answers. I ordered it, received the item (and the USA plug adapter via separate shipment), and have begun to use and enjoy it. Thanks again. John

To start with, there are 4 color settings that vary from crisp white to somewhat yellowish hued white (it sounds unpleasant but isn't at all). Within each colour setting there seem to be 4 or 5 brightness levels. The crisp white at high brightness seems to put out a lot of light. Overall, quite impressed by it.

Hi Tracy, Deneve here. Frankly, the light band was quite difficult for us to accurately capture in photos. The light band is unlike any lighting you'll see in any other essential oil diffuser on the market in our price range. The best we can describe it is that, yes, the light band emits bold, vivid colors. It is on the verge of being neon-like (our attempt at a nonexistent word!) when viewed directly. But because the light band is a thin strip, the overall ambient light intensity and brightness it gives off is actually somewhere between a bright hallway night-light with the brighter colors (yellow, green, sky blue), to subtly dark hues for the darker colors (e.g. dark blue, red), when viewed peripherally, e.g. lying in bed, looking away from the diffuser. If there's anything else we can do for you, please don't hesitate to contact us. We look forward to helping you! And have a great weekend. Best Regards, Nancy Deneve - Co-Founder

I actually picked this up from CNET and it seems to work. First, use your TV's "warm" color temperature setting for the input that you want to adjust. Next, start with the "standard" picture settings and adjust the following items to these listed numbers: Contrast - 78; Back Light - 75; Dynalight - ON;Brightness - 37; Color - 46; Tint - 0; Sharpness - 48. These numbers work well, and had been adjusted by the original writer to go with HD-DVD Digital Video Essentials. This, to me, would be an excellent way to start, as the colors are rich and work well in both decently lit (not total daylight) and darkened rooms. Good luck.

I don't have an answer, Scott, but seeing as how the 3-color cartridge is such a limitation, both in ink usage and in printing pure blacks, I wonder what the possibility is that Dymo will bring out a DiscPainter II shortly, with at least 2 cartridges. There's certainly room for them back there, and it makes a lot of sense. With my luck, they'll do it right after I buy the 3-color version. ;-)Thanks for your review. Re the dithering, is it really that bad when printing in high-resolution? Seems like at 1200 dpi the dithering ought to be minimal, but then I haven't seen one of these.

Use "Movie" mode, although it is darker than the others it gives you the best results in a dark room and allows for the quickest adjustment to proper calibration. These are my settings for my PS3/Blu Ray player (my HD Cable is slightly brighter) Oh and I strongly recommend you SHUT OFF Auto Motion Plus, it causes a soap opera effect and creates the illusion the picture is moving faster than normal. Color Temp: Warm 2 Backlight:7-10 depending on your preference Brightness:47 Contrast:95 Color:45 Sharpness:5 Tint:G49/R51 White Balance Settings: Red Offset: 28 Green Offset: 25 Blue Offset: 16 Red Gain: 25 Green Gain: 25 Blue Gain: 21 I like these settings and I got them from a credible source. Ultimately it is up to the viewer, and everyone has different preferences. I would advise a lower backlight setting for a few reasons. It is set high at the factory so the TV looks better next to it's competitors in store, and second it consumes more power and will shorten your TV's life span (will burn out faster). Play around with these settings and find what works for you. Hope this helps.

Yes. I believe the middle button - once it operating - if you press it for one second will start changing modes, from multicolors, to blinking intermittent and finally it will give you solid red, solid blue and solid green. Remember to allow at least 1 - 2 seconds after getting a mode or color. You can't press non-stop to get result. Overall, I feel the item's effect can be rated as 'decent' to 'good'. Hope this help

Right.. same question here.. some people have reported that they only see black & white image.. one reports it due to batteries not providing enough power...?? What's up with that..?? Does it display in color as advertised or in B&W;? Anyone know for sure?? Thanks!

As far as I could tell, there were only two settings; warm glow or multicolor transition. You cannot set a specific color. Hope this helps.

Not sure exactly what you're asking. As far as I know the lights can't be independent, because that would eliminate the point of the varying "levels" you get with the colors.

My recollection is the color changes at certain points, say, 10 mins out, 30 mins out, etc. Maybe flashes too. It soon got so it was difficult to set (one click might set it a minute or 13 minutes or 29 or whatever. I junked it.

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!

Thanks..I kept playing with it, and it finally worked just like you said (all the top lights lit--low, medium, high). I set it for 40 min...it worked great. I loved it. Thanks

I borrowed this model from a friend last week, and hers went completely dark yet still diffused. Seeing as how I loved that function, i ordered mine. I just received mine two days ago, and found the above comments to be true. One push turns on multicolor option. Two pushes stops on a color, three pushes turns colors "off", but the blue that illuminates the unit is too bright for my childs bedroom, basically glowing and lighting the room. It can't be described as having no color, as it's bright enough to dimly light a room. Unfortunately not what it advertised, and sad cause I love everything else about it.

I'm not sure what to tell you on that one. But it is a manual flash. Plug-in a trigger and take some test shots with brightness settings and you will get dialed in pretty quick. Do you have any other specific questions that you need help with?
