Sailfish Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 Hey, what's going on? I have been using the Lumia 5.2, over my 24G Reef Cube since Christmas, and overall happy with it. Now, I'm looking for lighting options to set up a small softy/LPS reef Jar, without much luck. The Lumia 5.2 fits over a pico, but $108.00 for only the LED chip is slight overkill for a tiny pico, don't you agree? What do you guys think of this LED chip: http://www.ebay.com/itm/4-Channel-Cree-Epileds-Royal-Blue-UV-Cyan-Cool-Warm-White-20-Beads-Multichip-LED-/371609049238?hash=item5685a01896:g:WxgAAOSw~oFXHZls "channel 1: 5x royal blue (450nm) DC Forward Voltage (VF): 15VDC Forward Current (IF): 350-1000MA channel 2: 2x true white (5000k) + 1x cool white (10,000k) + 2x warm white (3000k) DC Forward Voltage (VF): 15VDC Forward Current (IF): 350-1000MA channel 3: 2x blue (465nm) + 1 cool white (10,000k) + 2 cyan (490nm) DC Forward Voltage (VF): 15VDC Forward Current (IF): 350-600MA channel 4: 5x violet (420nm)--EpiledsDC Forward Voltage (VF): 15VDC Forward Current (IF): 350-600MA" Any other good and controllable options out there, for picos?

HighCurrent Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 Have you considered a Kessil A80? Link to comment
Sailfish Posted April 5, 2017 Author Share Posted April 5, 2017 The Kessil A80 is very nice, but it is surfing in the similar price range of the Lumia 5.2. Maybe a bit cheaper when you add the cost of drivers, controller, power supply etc. to the Lumia, but still quite steep for a budget pico setup Link to comment
Horerczy Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 Blueacro has some nice multichip arrays that are incredibly tiny. Link to comment
HighCurrent Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 Those look very nice! I had never even seen those before. Definitely going to keep them in mind for when my acro out grow my A80. Link to comment

Sandeep Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 Those blueacro boys seem to have some really nice stuff! They seriously need to offer a kit with everything (no mention of dimmers, cases on their site) for the diy or ready built. Link to comment
