Default Overdriving lights.

Hi,

10.76 lux = 1 footcandle

Pretty cool...

As a reference...my lighting is (OVRNO @ 80W X 2)

At the surface, 16000 to 20000 lux. (5" away)
At middle of tank, 7000 lux. (17" away)
At bottom of the tank. 4500 lux. (24" away)

And...the commonly accepted lighting for reef is 3000 lux for general purpose and 7000 lux for SPS.

- Victor.
