HELP: LED driver burned out, how long do I have?

Yesterday, my Royal Blue LED string driver bit the dust. I have 4 NW, 4 Lime, 2 Blue, and 4 Violet on my "white" string. I have a handful of SPS and a few LPS and softies. Is replacing the driver something that can wait until the weekend or is it more urgent to get the Royal Blues back up?

Thanks in advance!

I have blacked out full on sps tanks for 7 days. Wrapped in black plastic with blankets on the windows.

You can wait till the weekend . No worries m8.

Ok cool. I've done a few days without any light but never longer than that. Plus, I have SOME light on them. Time to upgrade to LDD drivers. I've been holding it off long enough. No sense wasting more money on the MW drivers!
