Pano sky lounge

Does anyone know if you can increase the Sky Lounge brightness more than factory settings allow it to be through coding?

If you turn off the "dim at night" option (or something like) and set interior LEDs to max brightness, it's pretty freakin' bright. More?

The sky lounge is not bright with it turned up full blast......was really disappointed in this option overall but it's better than nothing.

Thanks but I've already tried that. In my opinion, the sky lounge is just not bright enough. Seriously wonder if it's possible to make it brighter through coding

What color do you have it on? Mine is on blue and it is more than bright enough.

I also think that ambient lightning looks much brighter in blue compare to orange for example.

The LEDs have to have a limit on the brightness to avoid internal cabin dazzle.

I was using Lilac but recently changed to blue. It's definitely much better at night than most of the colors
