Yes, you have to manually edit the file and change the number to something higher. Some have set it to 99 and it works out well for them, it depends on how much ghosting will be noticeable for you on the Mini. For me with the Glo, I don't notice any ghosting with the light. This is how the line is added for the Glo under the Reading section, I'm assuming it will be the same for the Mini. Change the "50" to anything you want. If you notice too much ghosting, you can always change it to a lower number.
