Default Show us your LEDS

Let's see your LEDs! Give us the make/model what % you run at etc, and for the DIY fixtures tell us the leds you've got etc! Pics are a must.... Full tank shots please

3 x Mitras 6100HV run in high efficiency mode. I think my highest peak is the blues at ~70% around noon. Everything else is up and down depending on time of day.

I've been running my DIY effort for just over 2 years now. There have been modifications & upgrades but nothing major. I've used 10 watt multi-chip LEDs mounted on 3 rails in a wooden frame. Combination of 10,000K, 7,000K White and Blue & Royal Blue LEDs controlled by manual dimmers & timers.

The link at the bottom of any of my posts will take you to my build thread. It's only 3 pages on my laptop, not sure how many that translates to on a smart phone. Depends on your forum options. Post count is 93 atm.

Ill bite

LED by rapid led 3 heatsinks dimmable full spectrum

Took a Quick video of the tank tried to get the colour accurate PLEASE PRESS HD and let it load

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JAYG-QjA_ns




Full tank shot



And here is one heatsink over my 30 gallon



Really happy with the growth and easy to set up and around 1000$ from start to finish for 3 heatsinks with controller and dimmable for a 125g tank with the same if not more par than radians just less control
