aquaaddict Posted January 22, 2013 Report Share Posted January 22, 2013 amazing some of the advances with led lighting. was in the ideal electrical store on pickering street the other day and saw this amazing product. its actually one huge led panel, super slim and lightweight and extremely cheap to run, nice and bright with even coverage. this one is 1200x600 but they have other sizes. its from the robus range of led light panels, not cheap, but then again, for the money, a great investment...selling for 160.

Up to 5 times that of a standard fluorescent Simple to install and low/no maintenance Low glare diffuser and 4000K colour ensures this product can be successfully used in offices, hospitals, restaurants, leisure, retail and educational centres Suitable for PIR switching Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

african-cichlids Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 Wouldn't be good for marine as petfish stated its only 4000K whereas marines need at least 10000K. Still a neat looking light tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aquaaddict Posted January 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 of no concern to me ...honestly just putting it out there as a nice idea for general purpose lighting. naturaaly anyone into marine are more than aware of the complexities and higher end costs of their setups. horses for courses lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
african-cichlids Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 Your posting on an aquarium site hence why people are going to think its for an aquarium. I was just stating not good for marine never said it wouldn't work for a freshwater setup. You get what you pay for I guess isn't that so tru :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PETFISH Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 (edited) im sure it would be awesome on a tank without plants (freshwater)but no good for plants or coral i never said anything about marine ,as that is obvious that it would be not suitable,i am all for led lighting and as i have just said it would be great on a tank with just fish and plastic plants and ornaments etc. Edited January 23, 2013 by PETFISH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
