### 1/5 — Poco in the what ?

*2025-11-09*

Horrible product horrible customer service warranty is a joke. Nobody answers the phone. Nobody returns Emails.  I just replaced six. RGB underwater lights. $750 each two years old because they have water in them. Warranty claim cricket.
There’s no customer service   I can’t get the poco did you turn off my lights? I have to pull the fuses out each time
Like I said, no customer service with us for two years and just very unhappy I spent $10,000 on this stuff just do you have my neighbor tell me hey your lights are flickering
Or 8 AM your lights are on
I wouldn’t buy it 
I wish I bought just the white and blue ones and save my money, very unhappy let’s see if somebody replies

### 2/5 — Clunky

*2024-06-04*

Incredibly obtuse app.   Poco not compatible with furuno.  I downloaded and printed/bound the entire manual.   Whoever wrote the manual needs to go back to school, it’s virtually unintelligible and near impossible to follow for programming the lights via the app.   Big disappointment   I regret the purchase of the system.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your input. Your suggestions have been submitted to our development team and we are in the process of reviewing the instruction manual.

### 1/5 — Needs clock timer

*2023-11-28*

I guess if you’re using this for your boat it’s ok but if you’re using it for dock lights or anything that may need to go on and off at a certain time then this isn’t the product for you. Maybe they can add that in the future. The interface is a little cumbersome as well.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your input. Your suggestions have been submitted to our development team for consideration.

### 2/5 — Not user friendly

*2022-09-07*

Bought it for dock lighting, but it’s overly complex for my purpose. Not sure why it doesn’t have a dusk-to-dawn or auto on / auto off timer built into the app.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your input. Your suggestions have been submitted to our development team for consideration.

### 3/5 — Needs timer

*2021-10-13*

Add an on/off timer. How was that not part of the app already. Other then that does what its supposed to. Ive only used Bluetooth to control. Haven’t tried wifi.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your input. Your suggestions have been submitted to our development team for consideration.

### 2/5 — iOS 13

*2020-04-18*

Works but the app needs to get fixed won’t let me add new switches only 4 and the unit is not compatible with Garmin 2020 lower end units that comes with digital switching only high end units. Why?

**Developer response:** Thank you for your input. This switch issue has been resolved. The Poco app is compatible with all versions on Garmin that include the OneHelm feature.

### 1/5 — Limited Poco App

*2019-09-08*

Rarely responds to SmartPhone (iPhoneX) commands over Bluetooth or WiFi controlling Lumitec SeaBlazeX2 PLI Lights. 

Please fix this!

**Developer response:** Thank you for your input. These issues have been fixed in the later versions of the app.
