fredfish01 Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 Personally. if I were to have drug induced dreams, I would rather it be of me and some super model, but hey, whatever floats your boat. Say, this isn't going to turn into some weird 'Fight Club' kind of thread is it? Tell me that Engineer dude is real and not part of your electronic dream. Link to comment

Ben's light just that sexy. Say, this isn't going to turn into some weird 'Fight Club' kind of thread is it? Tell me that Engineer dude is real and not part of your electronic dream. O2Surplus is very real. His work is fantastic. Link to comment
bdevillier19 Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 when you are having drug induced dreams about how to finish your light, things have gone too far. time for an intervention Ben. Link to comment
fredfish01 Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 I know 02Surplus is real, its just that the post was very 'stream of consciousness' like and Fight Club just popped into my head. Hopefully this dead sexy light will be over a tank soon so we can all drool over it. Link to comment
jedimasterben Posted February 18, 2015 Author Share Posted February 18, 2015 The end of an era (a really short era lol). Link to comment
bdevillier19 Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 It was short lived lol. Will the new one last longer? Link to comment

bdevillier19 Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Of course, the ninja. Lol. How foolish of me! Link to comment
jedimasterben Posted February 19, 2015 Author Share Posted February 19, 2015 Nah, I am set for a while. I'm really liking these new arrays and getting back to a dual-row setup, and I don't even have the T5 hooked up. Link to comment
fredfish01 Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Pictures? How do you find the light distribution without the T5? Link to comment
jedimasterben Posted February 19, 2015 Author Share Posted February 19, 2015 Pictures? How do you find the light distribution without the T5? I'll have some preliminary photos soon, but won't have much for a couple of weeks. The light isn't complete yet still. Link to comment

farkwar Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 There's a meme that says, that they start painting the Golden Gate bridge on one end. When they get to the other end, they just go back and start over. I've never seen painters on the bridge, so it's probably a myth. It's not a myth for Ben, as soon as he finishes a light, he needs to start another one. I understand that. Link to comment
jedimasterben Posted March 24, 2015 Author Share Posted March 24, 2015 Finished my light, so then I finished the light for buckeyereefer, and now I'm working on a light for my planted tank. It's a disease, I tell you! Link to comment
bdevillier19 Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 I still have to finish mine. Been so busy at work haven't had a chance to trouble shoot the t5s and haven't had time to come up with an enclosure to hide everything. One of these days I'll figure it out. But with the LEDs my tank has been looking better and better. Gotta get better with the water changes and empliment a dosing system and things should start looking good. Link to comment

I just shipped out my 24" light to buckeyereefer today. Hope he has kids that like bubble wrap I am nervous about his T5, too. I didn't have any 24" bulbs to test with. I tested all the leads from the ballast to the insides of the endcaps and got continuity on all of them, but I would have still preferred to test everything :/ Going to make a new thread for my planted tank light, this one can officially be retired now, I think Link to comment

Its the only LED I have used that brings out red pigments like T5's while still having a good color balance with cool white unlike 660nm LEDs. Still couldn't get it to match my current T5 setup though which is just outstanding. Erio compressum which is generally a slower growing erio grows like crazy. Link to comment

jedimasterben Posted September 4, 2015 Author Share Posted September 4, 2015 Yeah, I am working my way back in time on this thread. Did you tear down your reef? Yes, the light is now on the 40. Link to comment
Horerczy Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 Evil cluster ... #### Yeah. Looks like a High CRI Vero flanked by two Luxeon M RB, three cool blue on one three up, two lime and cyan on another three up, and four violets. Link to comment
