Icebox1230 Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 Now that this Chinese holiday is over I really hope they ship out my lights soon. It has been hard trying not to think about the new lights every time I look at my tank. I havent added anything to the tank either. I want these lights soon. Link to comment
Icebox1230 Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 Here is a shot of the tank that the new lights are going on. Bad picture with phone and actinics just came on. How do you photograph a 6 foot long tank?? Here is a side shot Link to comment
Icebox1230 Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 They sent me a little teaser tonight. Light is complete but they are finishing up the solar simulator. I have been waiting over a month now (Already paid in full). This so better be worth it. Looks good so far. 48X3W Cree Light Fixture Here are two more Link to comment
SWAG Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 SWAG, you have to understand what a "business" is. It's where people outsource or find someone to do something, and then exponentially increase it's price. While many companies do this, it creates a healthy and thriving business. Without competition like this, prices would be sky high. "they won't buy one just because they have to pay twice the price for no reason" - You obviously have no experience with the outside world. Every single product ever fabricated has its price raised, solely for the reason of making a profit on their product. Leave please. And you spelled "Swagger" wrong. But of course you knew that. Again, please stop talking, and posting like twenty new threads a day that can be easily answered with a little research. Lol. This guy seems to never hop off people's d!cks. You're like ich except you attach to people's d!cks bro. Learn to hop off. Link to comment
castiel Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 So I got an email today from Vicky. Dear Sir, Hope you are doing well. E.shine released new item: 48 x 3W with controller recently. • 24 x 3w CREE XPE D3, 24 x 3w CREE XPG R5 • 60/90 degree lens focus light to deep bottom • White & blue can be separately controlled by controller • Controller can exactly simulate Sunrise and Sunset • Fixture dimensions: 600 x 140 x 55mm • Controller size: 200x140x50mm • Hang kits included • Warranty: three years for fixture, one year for controller • Can add bracket (for less than 760mm tank use) Look forward to hearing from you soon. Regards Vicky E.shine Systems And a link to this PDF I say one thing for them, if this was a custom request by Ice, they are pretty resourceful in deciding to make a batch, or add the product to their line even. I emailed back to ask for a price, will let you know =0) Link to comment
niQo Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 I'm interested in the price for the 48x3W fixture... Link to comment
Icebox1230 Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 I would be very interested in the price. Weird for them to release something that they haven't even completed. Got an email lastnight saying that they are still having some issues with the solar simulator and it could be a could more weeks before they are ready to ship. I have now been waiting over a month for this fixture. I knew that it was going to take a while but I didnt think it would take this long. I just hope that they get the solar simulator right before they ship out. I believe that the light can only be turned on and off with the solar simulator. I dont believe that there are any switches on the fixture itself. So if the controller craps out so does your light. I asked for a 52X3W fixture to begin with but for some reason the extra 4 leds were causing major problems. They came back to me and said that 48 was the max they could go. I figured 4 extra leds would not have made that big of a difference. Link to comment
tinctorus Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 Damn this looks really interesting, I may look into these whenever I can start working again once my pops is feeling better and doesnt need full time care Link to comment
castiel Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 I would be very interested in the price. I thought you might be. No word yet ... Link to comment
Icebox1230 Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 FYI- I bought four fixtures. Two with 60 degree optics and two with 90 degree optics. I would imagine that I will only be using the two 90 degree fixtures. I will probably be putting the other two up for sale. Link to comment
castiel Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 Ice - I was quoted $385/piece. Would be interesting to know how that compares to the price you agreed, given they created to your specs! Link to comment
SWAG Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 They sent me a little teaser tonight. Light is complete but they are finishing up the solar simulator.

Looks good so far. 48X3W Cree Light Fixture Here are two more i really wish they would offer those fixtures in white. would look more sleek imo. but thats a sick fixture that your're getting!

tinctorus Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 i really wish they would offer those fixtures in white.would look more sleek imo. but thats a sick fixture that your're getting! If it's an aluminum fixture why not just have someone powdercoat it any color you want it? Link to comment
pablom617 Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 I just got quoted 280 shipped to FL for the 60w... Link to comment
Lhewie Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 its worth it... its dimmable.. Link to comment
Icebox1230 Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 Dont know if I will ever get my lights. It has been over 5 weeks now and although they are done buiding the light, it seems as though they are having some problems with the solar simulator. Dont know what I should do at this point... wait it out or throw in the towel and ask for a refund. Link to comment
castiel Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 Did you see the price I was quoted for your lights? Is it cheaper or more expensive than you are paying? I still can't believe they are promoting them for sale when yours aren't even finished!! Are they still communicating? I would tell them to finish within the week, or you'll require a refund. This all makes me think twice about buying a unit from them when I am ready ... though I want the stock CREE 60W unit so hopefully that would all be good. Link to comment
SWAG Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 they now ship the CREE! which site ships the cree's now? ive been on a ton that are eshine knockoffs Link to comment

Icebox1230 Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 Castiel- Was that 385 shipped or just the price for the fixture itself? Link to comment
castiel Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 Oh, pretty sure that was just for the fixture. Link to comment
