Well I have some good news. First all for the record let me say that I may have cried "WOLF" on the first circuit board. I really didnt have a good measure to test REM ques while doing the scan/dark test. So I spoke with Bruce and that board ended up working fine for another person. The 2nd board was damaged in the mail so that makes sense. I worked with Bruce on the phone in testing the circuit board and correctly doing scan test to make sure it's picking up REM. Here's the key fact in what I was doing wrong. I had the Circuit board too low, the REM sensor was much lower than my eye. Well, he mentioned this has already been changed in the design of the mask, there's a bridge now that will not allow the circuit board to sink too deep that will cause this issue. So I'll do one night of check REM queues then I'll kill the sound and start adjusting the lights. Last night I tried around 4 but had minor panic attacks when I had 3 visits from the old hag (Sleep Paralysis). Another night, another test, we'll keep pluggin!
