thanks for the tip on the Fedy source, I'll have to look into it. burning lenses isn't realy a heat issue for me, it's related to the UVA in the emmiters causing damage to the plastic. if these Fedy emitters hold up well then they must use the correct UV stable plastic, same as RapidLED used on theirs.

I've got a broad blue range from 445-480 covered, if anything it's too Blue and needs more of the 445nm, and less of the 480nm, but that's getting rather picky. (I've already gone through countless dozens of combinations of chips on this 14 LED "test rig" just to get close. ultimately when expanded for my display tanks it will have each color controllable to really dial things in just right. I just tried to get some where close with all on.) |

the luxeons are more efficient and from what I understand provide light that is a little bit beter suited for photosythesis in corals, but the difference there is probably negligable...... |
