### 2/5 — VIVOSUN camera

*2026-08-16, version 4.68.0*

The camera won’t connect and I factory reset it multiple times everything else works but the camera is say it was logged into a different device and say remove it from that account but I just bought it

### 3/5 — Gute App

*2026-07-15, version 4.66.0*

An sich eine sehr gute und übersichtliche App, mit der man alle Geräte steuern kann.
Leider kann man in den Rezepten nicht einstellen, dass die AeroLush C08 automatisch zwischen Entfeuchten und Kühlen wechselt. Im Sommer kommt es durch die Hitze und hohe Luftfeuchtigkeit gerne mal vor, dass man die beiden Modi abwechselnd benötigt. Physikalisch sinkt durch die Klimaanlage automatisch die Luftfeuchtigkeit, manchmal wird aber die Temperatur zum Anspringen der Klima nicht erreicht. In dem Fall wäre es sinnvoll wenn man hier einstellen könnte dass das Gerät ab x% RLF in den Entfeuchtungsmodus wechselt. Dazu ist schließlich kein Umbau der Hardware notwendig. Das ist einfach nur ein softwareseitiges Umstellen. 
Deshalb leider nur 3 Sterne.

### 3/5 — It cool

*2026-07-15, version 4.66.0*

Love the set up but bought the fans had two with metal cage style and they broke not even two weeks started getting stuck when oscillating was leading to wind burn on my plants all I would need to do is push the thing down to get it oscillating again but also the grip to the pole situation is trash but I have since gotten the e6 and e9 model and so far so good.

### 3/5 — Guess i don’t have another option

*2026-07-14*

Vivosun suggestion:
1. aerolight fan and clip-on fan cannot separate speed levels despite different cfm (for humidity control)
2. under canopy light and main canopy light share the same brightness settings despite different wattage (cannot bump under canopy brightness without affecting top canopy ppfd)
2. There are manual record logging options in the row journals (such as light schedule, co2, soil ph) that are independent to the garden-linked environment logs and chart.
3. nutrients log can be have a link/sub log under watering log.

**Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback! We deeply respect your advice, and we will try to combine your feedback with our R&D in order to provide better products.

### 3/5 — Needs improvement

*2026-07-04, version 4.65.0*

There should be a 100% manual mode separate from recipe/pilot mode where the user can control the entire environment manually by adjusting/setting the different  features such as the lights, exhaust fan, etc. You can run this manually but it is really setup for recipe/pilot mode.

### 4/5 — Amazing for the price

*2026-07-02*

Bought almost the whole kit from VIVOSUN, tent, 2 lights, inline duct fan with carbon filter, oscillating fan and grow hub. Only complaint is that the grow hub app is cumbersome. 1st grow didn’t go like I would have liked but still got a decent amount of “leafy greens”. Decided not to tweak the pre installed scheduling on my second and it is definitely going better. Making the app more user friendly would definitely make this a 5 star review. I did go with the spider farmer self watering pots since vivosun’s watering system looked cheap in comparison.  Other than that I am completely satisfied with what I purchased.
