It's fair to assume that the docs are simply wrong/outdated about the specific duration and color when it works, but I would start to question those assumptions when it doesn't.
Pedantically proving instructions wrong (e.g. with a stopwatch and colorimeter) is a great way to submit a useful bug report with solid steps to reproduce, and a lot of the time it ends up solving the problem as well.
- bluGill 6y ago20 seconds is long enough that I will not wait that long in general. When something else happens in 3 seconds that seems like it could be right I might wait 5 more seconds when it doesn't work, but not 20.
- koala_man 6y agoDid it need all 20 seconds? If so, the docs were definitely wrong and useless and I see your point. My suspicion is that it works fine with 5 actual clock seconds (instead of "a short while"), and that they just said 20 so that even the most chronologically challenged would end up holding it for at least 5.
