DaveFason Posted June 6, 2017 Author Share Posted June 6, 2017 More orders have already been shipped this week with more heading out later. While we are on mint, we finished a black/mint Mini Tide for a customer! I just posted this but wanted to copy it here. " NanoBox is excited to introduce a new color to the NanoBox lineup, Mint. The color was discovered after switching to the Luxeon C LED on the V3.1 array. We have been using Lime for three years and have had incredible success. The mint spectrum nearly mimics lime however has a peak under the 450nm ( wavelength ). As you can see in the graph below marked with light pink. What does this mean for reefers? A better overall color, better blending and a more ideal spectrum. We have tested this spectrum for over a year with amazing results. Our original Lagoon 25, IM Drop Off , Fusion 10 and now our Red Sea 170 have used the mint spectrum. Along with many of our loyal NanoBox customers. The mint color has a "greenish" tone however once you blend with royal blue, blue, cyan and violet you will see how it shines. Mint Only : Mix : When will this be implemented in the NanoBox lineup? We made the switch back in November! We started to hear more and more people talk about the color looking better and glad we made the switch. Mint costs a few cents more but is well worth it. Will we be able to run the mint channel independently? Yes, if you would like. When ordering I would need to know. If you currently have a Plus M model we can change the wiring to separate the mint. Experiments? We have been running all of our tanks without any white supplementation for sometime. The results have blown us away. While there still needs to be true testing done ( spectrograph ) we believe this is a step forward. Creating a "reef" spectrum without white. If you look at 90% of the LED lights out there the white channel is marginally used. NanoBox will be sending a unit out to be tested utilizing only mint, royal blue, blue, cyan and violet. Rainbow Chalice Under Above : Have questions? Ask away! Happy reefing! -Dave " 3 Quote Link to comment
tmc13 Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 Does my ATI retro (12x - V3 array) have the mint or the lime? Either way, looks good to me. Oh, and this is good news. Glad to see progressive strides are still being made toward innovation. Quote Link to comment

Tautoo Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 (edited) Just Ordered a Tide, was a no-brainer when looking at all the great things people have to say about these. Look forward to getting it, recently back into the nano game, and why not start with the best? Edited July 12, 2017 by Tautoo 1 Quote Link to comment
DaveFason Posted July 12, 2017 Author Share Posted July 12, 2017 The office has been a little wild. Tons of new things happening along with some larger orders. I apologize for the lack of communication on this thread. Units and tons of retros are heading out. I am moving into a larger office ( same suite ) which will help tremendously. An actual spot for shipping, photo shooting, video and storage. Pictures to come! White/Nature Quad : Black/Purple Duo : Black/Blue Duo : 1 Quote Link to comment

Boggers Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 That old tide with the colored heatsink looks really good. I think you should do that on a new style with a clear vivid lid. Be hard to pull off, but maybe with a clear coat body and red on the heatsink? Quote Link to comment

Due to a dual anodize. The new style are a single piece of metal while the old style has the heatsink separated. -Dave Quote Link to comment
zachjohnson65 Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 Is a 4 channel retro v3 able to replicate the look and growth of our minimal white reef spectrum mentioned above. New to my light. I'm still in the acclimation stage. 35% also I have a remediation: retros kits have extended led board wire leads due to possible hood Limitations for mounting drivers and blue fish. I extended so I could place the bluefish right in the old side fan location on RSM130 so if can be reflashed. Quote Link to comment
