That bluetooth module info looks interesting, the module has PWM channels of its own, those could be what's actually driving the lights as well. I would love to add a bluetooth module so we could communicate directly however I wouldn't know the commands the light response to. I know with lights using IR for a remote there are different commands sent so I'm guessing it's the same with bluetooth. If you could find that info then we would be talking. It wouldn't be too difficult to add the module to the controller but need to know commands to turn lights on/off and change the brightness.
I just sent a message to Fluval to see if they would send me the commands the light respond to.
Hi Rob
Yeah that would be great , i tried contacting the Chinese manufacturer but they didn't want to give me more details about the api
So i am trying to get the codes by sniffing the Bluetooth communication from the app to find out what codes works. i have decompile the fluval app and trying to find the codes lol
Else tomorrow i will hook up the lights to an oscilloscope to find out the pwm signals
