Reviews of Photon 2

  • More features for advanced users

    It needs a better live dash board with the ability to add control faders for individual channels and more customizability, it would also be nice if you could control smart life devices too. Another big issue is some lights have multiple sections or zones of lights and there is no way to control them separately you have to create a bunch of groups of the same fixture which is very inefficient.
