Spent a day and did my cable management a few months ago, Heres a few files that may help out.

These helped out a lot for me, at least in cleaning up my runs
So the spectrum lights up at quite a distance 
slightly too far to get a read but still impressive.
Mine has no blue for some reason. The green is dim because thereās still quite a bit of blood over it.
Wellā¦
That sucks.
But now Iām wondering about a uv blinkie underneath it so that when you get a read you get the symbol instead of a glowing spot.
Iām pretty confident that in 3-6 weeks the dark moments where nothing is shining will eventually have blue peeking through. Basically for blue to make it through there has to be no dying or dead blood getting in the way, and the body will take a long time to totally clear it from the wound.
that is so oddā¦ it definitely had blue when i shipped it 
(Are you sure? Iām 60% sure the video of it you sent me pre-ordering didnāt have blue either)
Thatās a bit worrying 
I hope the same thing doesnāt happen to the red and green.
What impact can the led have on reading the chip if it dies?
Iāll let Amal answer you directly and correctly.
But if you want to hear a guess, I think the chip will be fine, and youll get improved performance.
FYI
the video may not do justice to the ACTUAL colours, but to me, the green looks like a green Halo effect around a blue light.
Just checked. Two videos, first one doesnāt have blue, the second one does.
My guess is they were two different ones?
I wonāt share the videos here just in case youāre not ok with that
Nah , thatās my video, not Amalās . It definitely didnāt have blue IRL 
The video you just posted, it looks like it ramps up in green
and fades out in blue (but green halo)
again, it could just be the video.
The screenshots I took were just a couple of frames apart
Not sure what you mean? I can assure you that there was no blue whatsoever, while seeing it in person pre and post install. And videos of other spectrums clearly show blue so I donāt think the video could completely hide 1/3 of the cycle.
If you mean blue is off sync and merges with green, maybe? Canāt tell visualy
Just to be clear, Iām not complaining 
just trying to figure out how thatās possible
Haha, youre all good, just saying what I saw in the video.
Thatās what it looks like in my screen shots
I think my spectrum (the first one Amal showed me and the one I agreed on) never had blue and still doesnāt.
The one he showed me later to demonstrate range was a different one with blue.
The confusing part is this
Maybe you remember another order or got confused with that theoretical second one?
Thatās my explanation anyway 
either that or the color changes ahave some unpredictable randomness
Also
Hey Amal, hey Amal, hey Amal 
should not have any impact at all. in fact it may improve performance because weāre not āwastingā power on LEDs 
Ok here are the videos. Iām pretty sure the first one is not the one I shipped, while the second one with my phone is.
The thing about these RGB fader LEDs is that the whole thing is a single package. The fader circuit is built into the LED package along with the emitters. I think it would be very difficult for the blue emitter to simply fail as an individual part.
Also to note, the fade pattern is somewhat random. In the first video the red LED actually blinks twice and then the green LED blinks.
I also found that the fader circuit actually seems to retain some bit of memory if the amount of time between scans is not like several minutesā¦ it might be possible that the pattern āstarts upā from where it left off if you were scanning it multiple times one after the other, and that particular part of the pattern did not include blue for whatever reason. The videos I shot, particularly the first one, is too short to determine this.
There are āfastā and āslowā fade versions of this LEDā¦ but you can see the āslowā version also has a section where there are fast blinks. In short, the behavior of these fader LEDs is sufficiently random that one LED package does not appear to behave the same as the next.
This video you posted with it on top of your hand over the ACR122U, it clearly shows no blue and also has some ādead spotsā where it would make sense from a timing perspective to have blue flash at that momentā¦ while in my first video there is no blue but there are no ādark momentsā eitherā¦ the red LED simply flashes twice.
Tough to say what happened hereā¦ but this is the magic of testing unreleased products
I wonder if they actually are somewhat ārandomā, like those candle imitations that flicker with thermal expansion. I can see something like that but tiny and a bit more consistent being how they work.
I got a rare shiny thatās all 
Use zinc to keep it powered and see if it picks up on the new pattern and it kick starts blue maybe?
Done that! Itās the same
(Actually zinc doesnāt support the apex yet so itās not continuously powering. But the acr should)
The blue LED also requires a higher voltage so the available power might have a say on which LEDs turn on?
Iāve tried the flipperās debug field which based on the range is the most powerful thing I have and I didnāt notice a difference
