    Posted: 15 Jul 2016 at 4:16pm
Hello Digital Stormtroopers,

Recently got my Bolt 3 in and it is awesome!

From my fiddling with colors, it seems I can control the LED strips along the case with the Digital Storm app. I have found purple to my liking. Unfortunately, the Control Center does not control the LED's located on the Hydrolux Pro Liquid Cooling system (which as far as I can tell is a rebranded Swiftech H220 X2). Right now the LED is red on the cooling unit's reservoir and CPU block-- is it possible to change that color?

On the Swiftech website (http://www.swiftech.com/h220x2.aspx) they say that the colors can be controlled, so I am just curious as to how (and if) that would be possible on my Bolt III?

Thanks!

Salangsang

Well, in any case, in these two pictures you can see that the reservoir LEDs at the top and the CPU block LEDs are red, while I have used the DS software to set the case LEDs to purple.

I believe Swiftech has it where you can control the lighting on their splitter which i assume will be on the opposite side of the case depending on where DS put it.

Thanks for the tip! I managed to figure it out! It was located behind the motherboard. There was a little Swiftech control module that had a little black button. Pushing that let me toggle through the various colors!

Here is a picture of the changed reservoir color!

Wait a minute, I'm confused, I thought the hydrolux lite wa the Swiftech H220 X2, and the pro was custom parts all the way around.

Hi DST.... For the Bolt, the Pro is the Lite on the other systems.   The pro, fully custom water wouldn't fit in the Bolt so DS, I assume, named their top Bolt water pick the Pro for marketing.

Very confusing for everybody, I can see a few people thinking they are getting the pro "pro" if you will verses the lite/pro.

I think calling it the "hydrolux bolt pro" or some variation of that would server both parties. Since it has the word "Bolt" in it where as the actual pro does not, signals its different, and should cut down or take away the confusion.

And if anyone is interested, I uploaded an unboxing video of my Bolt to Youtube! I am not sure how to embed videos on the forums, but here is the link.
