This is the mcpcb I fabricated . It contain 4 custers of 5 led.Each cluster contain 2 warm white, 2 royal blue and 1 uv

Finally I receive the 1st assembled mcpcb with the propose LEDs for local approval and endosement

After months of sourcing ,testing and modification I believe this time the finalproduct is going to take shape soon...A local made world standard aquarium led light set

I receive my first good news last month. Mid Jun 2016

Most standard 3W diodes are most efficient when running at ~1W. That is the lumens per watt is the highest. The thermal load is also considerably lower at this power range. Lani believe in spread (in fact most Euoropean Brand )whilst Ecotech or Ai (In fact most American Brand)believe in intensity Diiferent school of thought

Just wait for all the quote to be in

Cheap mcpcb rate of heat dissipation is badRate of heat dissipation good, mcpcb expensiveabout 3 time price different...

Has a hard time to get vendor to fabricate my mcpcb. Chat ,email more then 50 mcpcb vendors from China, USA, Germany and Thailand

This is how the light module will look like

Attached is the one LED cluster drawing

I also start searching for 4 to 5 channel LED controller

I start searching for mcpcb vendor to fabricate my led cluster At the same time I start searching cree, luxeon and Seoul semiconductor on led with cri of 160 to 190

I start sketching and drawing led cluster that will meet my dream. By end of January 2016 the led cluster arrangement was confirm

Triton Lani really trigger me. Its a form of led cluster that remove the disco affect that many led pendent have and at the same time it give the the even spread of light that many led pendent fail to meet It run at the optimum of luminous efficiency that most high end led emitter are design

Continue to top up MG. Once it reached above 1300 go slow and monitor

Red light is of very little use for most coral. Unless you are keeping corals collected near the surface of the sea. Violet and ultraviolet is the portion of light that really penetrate deep into the sea. They do contribute to the photosynthesis of most coral but not as much as the blue,deep blue and royal blue. But they contribute much to the highlighting of most coral flourescent.

Now is the exciting and very busy part ....

But the high price make few reefers dream come true.Are you also daze by Lani led set?Is there an affordable way to own a Lani?This dream fill my brain SINCE Jan 2016I must do something to fullfill my dream....Watch out.....

Recently Lani from Triton catch my attention. It concept is different from the crowd of led light like hydra 52HD, Radion X30 G3 Pro ,kessil A700, Nano Box ,etcAll is using 10 to 15 led cluster concept with lensBut Lani is running small cluster of 5 leds .All using Full spectrum of different color leds. But Lani go back to basic of white ,blue and purple.All running at close to 1A but Lani running at 1 watt.

After months of browsing and reading through many led light pendents spec and feedback in many forums I finally come up with my ideal led light array.

ATI T5HO light spectrum equivalent for led userAquaBlue Special: Full spectrum with blue tintBlue Plus: 410nm - 450nmPurple Plus: Full spectrum with Red and blue tintCoral Plus: 50%Blue Plus + 40% Aquable Blue special+ 10% Purple Plus This is just a guideline for DIYers who like their diy LED light set to light up like their T5HO

One Lumia 5.3 cover 24x24 x24 inch. One NanoBox V3 or Reef Led Lab V3 cover 12 x 12 x 24 inch

Lumia 5.2 is a 25 leds, 5 channel array. NanoBox V3 is 13 leds ,4 channel array and Reef Led Lab is 12 leds , 7 channel array

So now I have to choose between a lumia 5.2 or nano box V3 or Reef Led Lab V3 or get some vendor to produce a led array base on my own design

Looking at the 3 led arrays above do you recall something familar
