senji's 90g going led

[senji]

just picked up 2 6 pod 72 led at 3w. from ocean's by design for 369$ + tax ea. and am doing a full review since im the first to acquire these beautiful lights. they are verry slick. they have 2 channels completely dim able separately. they also can be daisy chained. which is awesome. comes with hanging harness and gripple. with small wiring can be used with an adrino controller. these lights are 5w controllable. enjoy the pics

Are you going to be able to give us some par readings, at different %s on theses lights?

BTW what did you think of OBD new store space?

 

[senji]

big and awesome do u have a meter bring it over if you do. this unit is putting out 100 more par than the prototype i do know that.\!!

 

[pandora32]

Should look great! I like the picture with the blues turned up high...lol...looks like your kid is coming in for a landing!

 

[senji]

ok got them hung i want comments.

some creative hanging at no cost.

100% both

100% blue only

100% white only

and this is where im going to keep it until i get the adrino. 50% white and 100% blue

there u have it hope to find a par meter to see what im actually getting. so what do you all think any questions/concerns?

 

[Peppie]

Gives the tank some awesome color.
I am not a fan of the cables and cords being visible. If it were me I would build a canopy to house the units.
Dont get me wrong, you did a wonderful job hanging the units. Looks as clean and simple as it can get.

Now as for those gawd awful looking powerheads............................................................................................

 

[mercenary-grunt]

when im rich like you peppie ill buy some mp40's untill then my twin 3200gph powerheds are staying put

 

[Peppie]

LOL
If I were as rich as you think I am, I would buy you some MP40s. Just so your little one would stop asking you " What kinda ugly fish is that up in the corner daddy?"


I must confess, I to have ugly powerheads in my tank. But they are not that BIG.

 

[Katchupoy]

Just fyi to raise them up really high and slowly lower them. They are really powerful. I believe we measured them above 400 at 30 inches.

Nice looking lights, and good job hanging them from a difficult ceiling Are you getting the same color as in the pictures?

Weren't you building a DIY LED a while back? Why did you decide to go with these instead of the DIY?

 

[Skimmy]

excellente!!!
can you give us any info on the leds in the fixture?
like the color frequencies and brand?
the color in your tank looks great!

 

[Skimmy]

i like that pod style fixture, and i like that it has a good heatsink and a few fans,
both passive and active cooling to ensure longevity of the leds.
excellent choices, OBD!

 

[kpiotrowski]

wish I never just replaced all my halides and vho's. those are looking like the real deal!

 

[iroll253]

They also offer a controller for them to do automatic sunrise/sunset for an extra cost. Still worth it though!
