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?
Worker put the wrong LED in, or it’s a defective LED
OK I was wrong to say the “blue color” runs the whole length of the quarter section - - my video matches their video and your description:

But the pulsing essentially goes from dark blue to very light blue, remaining darker blue on the edges as you say – I.E. if for some reason I wanted to trick people into referring to this as “blue” while still being able to show in court that it technically was “white”, THIS is how I would design it. (Why muddle the issue like this, combine blue & white in such close proximity [in both space AND TIME] and then ask ppl to look for one color? It matters in troubleshooting.)
