Milad LEDGroupBuy.com Posted March 24, 2012 Author Share Posted March 24, 2012 Milad, You are the only supplier that listens to what we need and goes out and gets it for us at a good price and for that I salute you! Now if you could only get the full bin codes for the white leds you offer so that I can be sure of where on the chromaticity curve the leds are I could finally say goodbye to cutter forever Thanks! The Bins codes are in the "other details" tab. They are mainly a range of two to three. Off the top of my head the XML CW U2 we are just bringing in are 1A. Most of the XTE Cool White we are bringing in are 0B 0A Link to comment
M@rine_lover Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 Fine, but dont tell too many people yet. Nano reef should be the only ones that know about it. We are developing what we are calling "Ocean Coral White". Its basically one star that you add on to pop your colors and make your build a full spectrum build. So new builds, all you need really is two stars. One for your base color (Our 3UP LED we introduced late last year) and then the Ocean Coral White which will bring the colors in corals out that you see in this thread. Will you have special offer/promo for Nano reefer member when the big day come ? Hope the HVTV and OCW come together so that I can order them at the same time! Back to the question...WHEN..LOL!

ajmckay Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 Hey milad, I'm anxious to see a picture of the 3up/ocw combo... Because that's almost exactly what I was thinking of doing, except using tv instead of more rb... I suppose I could still add some tv... Doing it this way might lessen the #of drivers needed.

wrx1908 Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 Milad, Hi I would like to know if you think my setup would be a high light setup thanks I have like 50 LEDs total thanks Link to comment
Milad LEDGroupBuy.com Posted March 27, 2012 Author Share Posted March 27, 2012 Milad,Hi I would like to know if you think my setup would be a high light setup thanks I have like 50 LEDs total thanks Do you mean full spectrum? I think we use full spectrum a bit loosely here but its mainly anything outside the base of NW/CW and RB combo. so adding 495nm Turquoise, 660nm and 420nm and anything inbetween makes it full spectrum.

I mean in general 50 LEDs for a 40B is it good for high light sps thanks for your help Link to comment
jedimasterben Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 I mean in general 50 LEDs for a 40B is it good for high light sps thanks for your help Depends on what kind of LEDs, what wattage, what amperage you run them, if they are dimmed any, the spread, what optics, etc. You can't just say, yeah, 50 LEDs is high light because that doesn't even tell even a small part of the story.

Ichiban Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 i might consider doing a DIY LED build for a 60-f ADA tank.. kinda nervous... Link to comment
Ichiban Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 is this all i need? other than soldering iron and wires to wire the leds to the driver and dimmer? 6 3Up ( 12 RB+6 NW) 4 Deep Red 6 TV 4 Turquoisee not sure how would i wire these up or which order would be best which size heat sink would best fit the specs for my tank? maybe a 8 in long heat sink maybe a set up like this? any advice would be helpful. 2 40w 700ma driver ( 1 for the exotics running at 400-500ma and the other for RB at 700ma 1 25w 700ma driver ( for the NW) 3 AC Plug for driver - 3 prong 3 10K Ohm 1/2 watt Linear Taper Potentiometer Easy Solder ( DIMMER?) Thermal Tape this is for a ADA 60-F Tank. thanks Milad for helping me choose the led setup Link to comment
Veng Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Ichiban, you might look at this thread: here. He's got some great pics on color comparisions. Link to comment
Ichiban Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Thanks you guys are really helpful.. Just ordered the makers heatsink so waiting for that to hopefully come into production Link to comment
cdrewferd Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Here are a few coral pics from my build. I'll try and get some full tank pics soon. I'm running the following colors: 18 RB 12 NW 6 TV 4 DR 4 Turquoise Link to comment
mattclark82 Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 Thinking of rebuilding mine. Currently 14 RB and 7 NW on a 24x12x14 tank Option A: two of these clusters 7 RB 4 NW 1 T 1 R 2 V Option B: 3 of these clusters 4 RB 2 NW 1 T 1 R 2 V Both setups RB, NW, and exotic will all be on separate dimmable drivers.

GTi Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 16 Royal Blue, 8 Neutral White, 4 Violet, 2 Blue, 2 Red, 2 Turquoise. The red and turquoise helped bring out the orange, red and green colours in the tank. Now I just need a 3-up exotic star for my pico tank - 2 RB: 1 NW is looking a bit plain! Link to comment
