need to run as root?

[hulbert]

python flux_led.py -s didn't work until run with sudo on a Mac. Presumably the script needs to run as root? Can I help document this in some way?

I run it as a normal user in Sierra. I just changed mode on it to 0755 and put it in my path. I am invoking it as flux_led.py, not manually invoking Python as you're doing.
