Lightbulb Pacific Sun LED group buy coming soon

We are pleased to announce Progressive Reef have just thrown a massive amount of weight for you guys behind Pacific Sun LED fixtures

So much so as of next week they will be launching a Canada wide Group buy for all fixtures.

Please check back here and also on their own forum for further details as they emerge.

Part of the group buy will be for this amazing fixture just lanuched.

The Metis LED is PacificSun’s newest solution for high performance LED reef aquarium lighting. Since PacificSun has been designing and manufacturing original LED lights for the aquarium hobby just about longer than anyone, their Metis is probably the first 4th generation LED light in the aquarium industry, and with this succession comes a wealth of the best LED lighting features that reef keepers are looking for.

Our favorite detail about the Pacific Sun Metis LED light is it’s incorporation of four types of LEDs running at a couple different power levels. This Metis LED fixture will have an even ratio of four different led types on board: Neutral white and cool white Cree XPG LEDs running at 5 watts and blue and royal blue Cree XPE running at 3 watts each.

As great as humans are at designing and engineering delicate electronic products, machines simply assemble them better and all all electronic parts of the Metis LED are assembled by the machines – not by humans like with previous PacificSun LED lights. This means that all electronic parts are mounted with very high precision – and PacificSun LED will be able to extend the duration of their product warranty of the Metis LED, although we do not know exactly what that will be.

The outer cover (housing) of the Metis LED is made from stainless steel which is available in two choices of finishes- pearl cosmic white and space anthracite which is probably similar to a dark coal color. Of course the PacificSun LEDD has the same external controlability of each LED channel via PacificSun controllers and the GHL ProfiLux so you can get your lightning effects, dawn to dusk simulations, lunar cycle and maybe even a little cloud cover action.

Metis LED lights are avalaible in three diffrent sizes:
- 2x100W – 33.5″/850mm – suitable for aquariums up to four feet/120cm
- 3x100W – 49″/1250mm – suitable for aquariums up to five feet/160cm
- 4x100W – 65″/16500mm – suitable for aquariums up to 6 feet/ 200-210cm

















Look out also for GHL profiLux/Pacific sun group buy coming next week also!!!!!!!!!!!

Been waiting since your initial post some weeks ago for these guys to put specs, prices or anything beyond some nice pictures up on their website.

The manufacturers website is really not much more help either...

could really use some info on this fixture.

all info will be posted this week - I have already posted the info on the Metis units.

Yes - sorry the main website is still in construction.

Progressive reef are working today to get up to speed fast. The biggest issue is that we have literally been caught with our pants down, we did not expect such a vast amount of interest so quickly and were looking to launch this gradulally, but now my day is full of PS, yesterday i replied to 278 emails!! So I apologise for the delay and it all will take shape this week.

Our own website will also have most the info within one week.

yep for sure - There is an awesome deal going to start soon.

With agreement with P.S the Deimos and Phobos will not be distributed/supported in the NA market, both P.S and ourselves decided to concentrate on the more modern Black Python and Metis. The reason being is that they simply are too heavy to ship.
