Recommended Posts

Nano Box Users,

Working hand and hand with Bluefish Lighting on the new Bluefish Mini we are proud to offer a preorder on the new controller. The Bluefish Mini will use the existing Storm plug for a simple plug and play. We are very excited about this little controller! Nano Box will be working on a CNC case as well!

 

Pre-Order Price : 99.95

 

Please contact me for pre-orders! Pm or email.

Dave, I was planning on ordering a Duo but was curious on an ETA for these. I rather wait out for this, instead of the storm.

I would put your order in now. Just so I can get a good count on these.

O.K., I've seen the features on the Mini. Currently I use the Storm controller.

 

But before I pony up $100 smackers for a new controller, can someone enlighten me on the benefits of one over the other??

If the minis only accept the LDD-H drivers, how do these work with the nanobox lights? I know I sound like an idiot but, does Dave run LDDs in his fixtures?

Yes. Makes it easy.

The biggest feature is the wireless function. The BF also has geological weather simulations and more accurate dimming features. While it won't make your reef any better, it does have some amazing features. Also the OS is very simple.

What's the difference vs the normal bluefish?

Are you using it with a Nanobox fixture? If so, it is $100 cheaper and that's realistically the only difference lol

Not yet. We are having to convert files overs. I will have some shortly!

Dave...did you get a chance to finish the case design? Pics?

 

$106.20

Dave,

 

Whats the shipping cost going to be to 08081? I figured it might make sense to pre-order with you since shipping should be less.

 

Thanks,

Dave, you ever find time for this?

Working on the final touches this week. I had to finish a few things prior to this.

Dave had you considered integrating it with your boards in the NanoBox fiture so that there wasn't the need for a second housing, etc? that would be very neet to be able to just unbox your fixture, power it on and insert the imp card and pair.

So would you still need the storm controller or just this and the fixture? I'm with Adam too, if you don't need the storm controller, mounting this inside of the fixture would make things a lot easier. It doesn't look very large. Would probably fit pretty easily in the nano box with two sets of LEDs. Not sure about the mini tide.

I have been testing a few different ways. The biggest issue is the signal strength. I have a new side cap and slightly larger driver housing I am playing with to see what I can do. Thanks for the input.

This replaces the Storm. As well I thought about integrating it in the body however I have been leary of doing this do to salt water splash. Keeping it external gets rid of that problem.
