I just ordered 4 fans from ATI.
I think it’ll be pretty easy to replace. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Do you know if these lights include the hanging cables and ceiling mounts? Thanks!

Your fan is likely not working because your factory settings are incorrect. If you follow the steps in this video it will likely fix the issue. It is not likely to be a fan problem.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sian2sc693A&t It could also be this, but not as likely: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ow3y21PGt5o&t And bsme is correct, all ATI Fixtures include a hanging kit

Hi Keith. I just did the update.
I set it to 2 spots and t5 fans to 235. |

I’m curious about what intensity you guys have running in your led clusters. I just bumped mine up from 40% to 50%. My tank is mostly sps but they’re all just little nubs ay the moment. Would higher led intensity make them grow faster? I am aware that too much led intensity can kill frags so I’m raising intensity a little at a time over a span of a month or two.
Thanks guy! |

Keith -
Not sure how often you check this forum, and I will certainly call tomorrow, but i was planning on working on my fixture today when I realized that unlike my previous problem last November, I have 4 lamps not working (the 4 on the inside). Does this mean I need 2 ballasts? What should I do to trouble shoot? If it is the ballast, does ATI still sell ballasts for my generation of Powermodules? Thanks. Joe P.S. For everyone else I have been running the fixture with only the 4 outer lamps for about 9 months and my corals still look fabulous not to mention the bulbs are almost 2 years old now (yes - I tried new lamps in the slots that are not working) so long story short 99% of the time the fixtures we have provide more than adequate light.

Are these hybrids reliable now?

I bought 2 Powermodules. Both failed within the first 2 years. I fixed the first one myself, and I am hoping I can fix the second myself as well. For a $2000 unit I am extremely disappointed in the reliability, but the results and ease of control as regards the dimming and the LEDs are simply not available in any other fixture. Conversely I have a Hamilton fixture I keep over my frag tank. It is caked with salt creep and is over a decade old and has never had a single problem but then the electronics are all remote, it's not dimmable, and it generates a ton of heat. Also, I have a dimmable Sunpower made by ATI that I dropped into the tank and it still works fine and has never had a hiccup. My guess is the LEDs produce damaging amounts of heat that is not adequately compensated for in a fixture that is too tight.

I'd love the convenience of LED and control all in one, but they just look too fragile. Might have to stick with the Sunpower line and stick an a360 on it.

Glad to finally see another post from you Hope you are doing well. IIRC you ran the spectra, then tried the pacsun hybrid and now obviously the ATI hybrid. How would you compare the two hybrid fixtures? (I am running the pacsun myself (8xT5/145W LED) It is great, but the fan noise alone makes me regret not going for the spectra tbh...)

Hello Joe, I try to stay on top of these threads, but not over the weekend. This would be best to troubleshoot via a support ticket, please shoot us an email at customercare@ our domain (the North America domain). We DO still have all the parts available for all versions of Powermodules. Regarding reliability. I actually deal with very few issues with the LED Powermodule, however perhaps people do not know we are available to help? Also the fixtures are very repairable. Parts are available and we are here to help troubleshoot.

Thanks. I've been really struggling with whether or not to continue in the hobby because so much else is going on in my life. Fortunately, my system is large enough it remains very stable with little input. As to the Pac Sun vs. ATI. I do not have scientific evidence, but it is my opinion as a hobbyist that there was simply something not good about the LED setup in the Pac Sun fixtures. They tended toward a "disco ball" effect, and I really felt that my corals didn't like them no matter how high I hung the fixture. With the ATI I now run the LEDs at 100% but only for a few hours per day and my corals never looked better so I can't say enough good things about the ATI hybrid. I think it is simply the best lighting option available today even with the issues of occasional ballast failures. Quote:
Keith - I will certainly be in contact to set up a support ticket. As much as I am frustrated by the failures I experienced I can not say enough good things about the support I received with my first issue and I expect this time around will be no different. Joe

I just plugged my 39w 8 bulb hybrid in and it took nearly 45 seconds for the light to come on. Is this normal?

Actually I'd say 45 seconds is super fast. Usually it takes a couple minutes to fully boot up. I suppose the light could come on at 45 seconds but more than likely the WiFi wasn't yet available for another couple of minutes (when both Green indicators are solid). This information is based on it being a Black WiFi version. The older versions did come on quicker, usually not instantly.

I would be happy to try it if you like, but I am pretty sure it will reject it since it doesn't have the right programming for the fixture.

That makes sense Keith
Anyone have a 3 LED 8x54w program they would like to share? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks Keith. I don’t have a Wi-Fi unit. Not sure if it matters.
What’s the email? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I have had mine going on my second year and it’s my favorite light. I have used radions, kessils, metal halide, mitras.nothing comes close to the ati powermodule. I thought my fans stopped working but that was just me not knowing that they only come on at a certain temperature. But I did order some fans just in case they should fail.
