So when I switched from Gen1s to Gen4s, I mentioned that the dimpled lens caused considerable eye glare based on the height of where the lights are mounted and of course how tall I am. (Tall peeps most likely do not see the glare, Lol!)
So I did an extremely simple DIY black cardboard visor type thingy just for the front of the fixture and it makes all the difference in my situation. Thought I'd share:
1st pic is my frontal tank view with unmodified G4-XR15s, 2nd pic is the black cardboard visor, 3rd pic is the same frontal tank view (for me) with the cardboard visors on.
