  1. Bro if get more than one offer let me know. But I need black cabinet with minimum 10 mm glass thickness Thanks
  2. What is this item? For what purpose?

    The Lux is definitely good so is the PAR.You read all from Nano Reef.com

    With proper heat dissipation the LED should last 100,000 hrs. But lets take it on the safe side we can take it as 75,000 hour. The heat dissipation is almost not there, now mainly is your pump or wavemaker heat.

    Tomorrow I will go and collect the hood from the reefer

    Very hard to use camera to capture the 2 lights side by side. The only accurate way is take the intensity reading of the 2 lights when they are mounted on the tank

    Will left it to burn in for 24 hours before install on the 24 G nano cube hood Then we can do an intensity measurement as compare to the original 76 watt PLC

    How bright is this light set? It bright enough to even do your reading

    The electrical saving is (76-24) watt per hour. Or 1248 watt per day or 1.248 kw per day or 37.44 kw per month for a 24 G nano cube

    The LED running at 24 watt as shown by the Voltage and Current meter

    The LED on round PCB for better heat dissipation as compare to the star

    Now it is power by 18 pieces 4 watt P4 LED Total power consumption is 24 watt.(I did not run at maximum forward current so that the heat can be within control Also this tank is 16 inch high only it will breach any coral if run at full forward current of 1 ampere.

    Originally it come with 2 x 36 watt PLC light So that is 72 watt

    After almost one month of hard work the first nano LED light set was ready. This is for Nano 24 G cube.

    I am using the same circuitry as http://www.instructables.com/id/Power-LED_...nstant-current/

    I can PM you LED and lens price only. I do not deal with buck. I do my own current driver

    Something to share, bros LED light intensity are high although they may look dim.(P4 running at 700mA) During the course of testing I found and observe this. While testing for the PAR of LED lighting(I do not have a PAR meter) with SPS I put the SPS near the top of the tank closer to the LED(About 2 inches from the LED light). 3 days later all the SPS frags that are nearer to the LED start to breach So I move a few half breach SPS down another 8 inch. After 2 weeks they start to color. Monti which was place about mid way down after 1 month start to thicken and extend.
  19. Anyway if you run ok with 48 watt T5HO. The equivalent for 48 watt T5HO cannot be 48 watt LED Normally for LED about less than 24 watt will give you the equal lux value and higher PAR value

    Sori for the delay. Run out of constant current drivers. You mean the 1 ft with P1 LED ? Only good for low height tank of less than 20 inch and no SPS
  21. If keeping fish only should be no problem. Some not so demanding LPS may be still ok. Most LPS and SPS cannot survive
  22. LED will maintain its spectrum for 100,000 hrs if the temperature at junction is maintain below 33 Deg C
  23. Bro, 24 inch no lens how to pentrate? Go for 45 deg lens
