D Z Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Not bad looking. The mixture of LED temps they chose to use for the full spectrum version looks quite promising. Not getting as high of a PAR reading as I would have though it would, though. Interested in seeing what the more knowledgeable LED guru's have to say about this. Link to comment
jedimasterben Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Seeing as the Cree EZ1000 is available in royal blue, blue, or green, I don't get how they're getting additional color unless they're using remote phosphor, in which case they are no long Cree LEDs. Link to comment
GlassHouse Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Looks cool until you see the measly amount of light that it emits on full power. You might be able to grow zoas if they are in the middle of the tank and 2" below the water surface... Link to comment
Horerczy Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 Based on the numbers given it'd work fine on a pico or nano tank. Be a decent color boost spotlight for anyone wanting to take a Japanese approach to lighting. Link to comment
jedimasterben Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 .... or you could get a Nanobox 'budget' Mini. Link to comment
Horerczy Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 .... or you could get a Nanobox 'budget' Mini. and buy a controller upgrade to bring the mini's functionality up. Link to comment

tibbsy07 Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 I still can't believe that the refugium/algae version is 230 bucks. wtf? Maxspect, you so crazy. Link to comment
jedimasterben Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 I still can't believe that the refugium/algae version is 230 bucks. wtf? Maxspect, you so crazy. What did you expect? They're all made the same way with the same capabilities. Link to comment
tibbsy07 Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 What did you expect? They're all made the same way with the same capabilities. Yeah, I know. It was the fuge light that made me go "Oh wait, that's a lot for that little spotlight." I guess if you have a REALLY nice planted tank or something. Link to comment
Markburns43 Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Exactly for just reds and whites. Why spend 230 dollars for a fuge light when theres no need for fancy lighting to grow plants.Even if you did have a nice planted its only 35 watt reds and whites like my 90 dollar finnex planted plus. It might have alittle more par for deeper tanks but for there price I'd just buy a kessil amazon sun, for my fuge sure as shit ill put a 12" finnex planted plus for 40 bucks or less. Link to comment
Markburns43 Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Oh and this is for ben.. how did you get into building your own lights and what's the best source of info for starting out. Its something I'd like to try , having wiring and handy diy ability. It amazes m what u and evil build and to think what these name brand companys put out for top dollar can't compare.
