Have another unit of par38 to sell.

Basic Info :

12 x 3w Bridgelux LED.

aluminium heat sink

plastic housing easy to remove (to change/remove lenses)

LED :

2 x Warm White (3000k)

1 x Cool White (8000k)

4 x Violet ( 410 - 420nm)

5 x Royal Blue (455 - 460nm)

The violets may look dim to our eyes, but are VERY bright (in terms of PAR/PUR) to the corals. its a very important wavelength/spectrum that the corals need for its growth and coloration. And some fixtures (even the branded/high-end ones) do not have violets (in the range of 410 - 430nm) in their fixture.

Great to use as add-ons to fixture which :

- Only uses white and blue combi, add this to widen the spectrum.

- Uses red/green colorful leds. especially with lesnes, some corals may not be able to absorb/receive the spectrum since lenses narrow down the spread of the led. Warm white on the other hand have red/green in them and therefore has better spread.

- Fixture that lacks violets. lots of fixtures up till date does not have violets.

solo use :

may give off a purple hue and some poeple may dislike it. suggest you remove the lenses off the warm whites and the violet and that will give a more balanced 20k look.

Light comes equipped with 90 degree lenses, but they are removable as well as interchangeable by removing the plastic lid. Do note that the unit im selling is BRAND NEW, this unit i took apart is my own personal unit cause im using without lenses.
