Default Ecotech Radion G4 - Radion reinvented!

Hello everyone,

We are pleased to announce the NEW Radion G4!



The Ecotech Marine Radion G4 is here!

The newest generation of Radion is ready for purchase! The best aquarium LED light in the world just got better. Simply put, the G4 Radion the best thing since the G3 Radion!

More Color

The Radion G4 features a whole new cluster. The re-balancing of proven colors combined with the addition of warm white and violet takes color rendition for your corals to the next level. Reconfiguration of the clusters compliments the all-new HEI lenses to deliver balanced color mixing better than ever before.

More Coverage

The HEI lenses on the G4 deliver more usable light area. This is accomplished by spreading light that would normally create an area of high PAR directly under the LED fixture and redirecting it to a significantly wider optimal area of intensity for coral health and growth. This will reduce shadowing in the aquarium as well as increase usable space for coral at all depths.

More Control

More colors means more channels. The G4, like its predecessors, will be instantly recognized by EcoSmart Live and can be added to an existing or new ESL account either through USB or with the Reeflink. *Channel control is updated to match the new clusters and includes Violet and Warm White.
*G4 PRO models only

Happy Reefing!
Ray

This is becoming a little like I-phone.
I wonder if milliepora will grow under these lights .
The price point is almost the same as GHL leds

Unimpressed. For the outrageous price point these will likely be sold at and they still aren't wifi enabled blows my mind. Competition has went that route and doesn't ecotech even have partial ownership in AI?

Reeflink should be phased out with the introduction of a new light in my mind. The above post is exactly what I thought.... reminds me of apple products and why I no longer waste my money on them.

This sums it up for me. Even the cheapo chinese black boxes come with wifi nowadays. Why doesn't a $1000+ high end lights still lack such a simple feature.

Because they need to sell off the stockpile of Reeflinks first and then they'll introduce the G4 2.0 with wifi for another 100 bones

Did somebody say iPhone 6 plus....The new and unimproved. What they should have done is released the g4 in a xr15, xr30 and ***xr60 with 4 clusters and similar dimensions and coverage as a maxspect r420r so consumers dont need 4 and 5 individual fixtures. Add these gimmicky optics, power borrowing like in the AI hd fixtures (because who uses a full spectrum at 100%) and wifi capability with an app for free in the app store. I'd be all over that.
