The first time entering was hard for me too. the shortness of the taps was a bit confusing. After doing it right the first time no issues here, it is just very short taps, if you tap one just longer then half a second you have to start over and if you miss that you are tapping longer then 0.5s at tap 13 you do not know you are only at 7 when you think you are at 20.
Update: Contacted BangGood (a couple of times) and got a replacement driver sent. Just arrived today, popped it in, and it works a charm! Loving this X5 again - now to mod the tail LEDs a little…
Its not really the timing because if have also x5/x6 in cu/al and i have no problem going in config mode. But this particular one seems to have a problem. I also tried havning 1light in each hand and simultaneously tapping and still the priblematic one cannot enter in config while the other can easily enter.
There are sets available on Banggood. Are these unsold sets from the group buy? And if so, could I have the code to buy one at the group price? I just recently joined the group and missed this great deal.
I recommend 3B = neutral white. The 1A has a slight blueish tint, the 3B gives more natural color rendition, especially outside.
3B (5000K) is always a safe choice, you won´t notice any brightness difference with your eyes compared to 1A.
Kusie and Bret H,
Thank you for your valuable input.Appreciate your quick reply to my post.
I went ahead and ordered the Al set with the 3B tint.
Hopefully Banggood gets it right and ships out 3B tint.
I really wish someone could help convince Banggood to reactivate my SS/Cu code or send me a identical replacement code, so I can actually get mine. I know they didn’t send it because the tracking number got deactivated and they refunded me with no hesitation, after 2 months of waiting. They’re really nice lights, just not as enticing at $199 USD.
