Just spent hours trying to factory reset a Rachio 3, but instead of it going to “rebooting mode”, ie. displaying a pulsing white zone 1 light like in the reset instructions, it kept going to a pulsing blue light in zone 1…

Until I FINALLY I realized they were referring to this gunmetal-grayish blue color as WHITE.

I’ve noticed several router & gateway companies making the same mistake on their products indicator lights. They’ll say, “is the status light a steady white?” And I’ll say, “Yeah, if you mean light blue.” Silence. “Yeah”.

What gives? Are the LEDs getting syphilis over time?

    In the video you definitely see white in the center and blue on the ends (of that leftmost quarter of the bar)

    The unit I was working with has that blue color along the whole length of that quarter section.
