    LED lighting - made my mistake

    I purchased the current USA orbit marine LED. Yes…I should have researched more. In the process of returning. The company is out of business (I just found out) and the software is not stable. 
     

    So, I am looking at either new budget lights or used mid range lights. Your thoughts? Will be used on a innovative marine SR – 60.

    Way late on this one. Sorry. What direction did you go, Aaron?

    Does anyone use these. Looking to replace my T5's for led. any suggestions is appreciated.

    You have the option of staying with the form factor and using only LED bars. No programming, no WiFi, just simple on/off like T5. If going that route, you can get excellent coverage and spectrum for a reasonable price. I know Luca, and he was kind enough to allow me to help with his lights. I don't make anything by helping him. I just like what he's doing. He'll be able to recommend a combination of bars that come darn close to ATI Blue Plus.

    My ICP showed low iodine, too. Interesting. It looks like I've halted the STN/RTN event, as my last remaining tenuis survived mid-STN. Not 100% certain it's over, but fingers crossed. Happy to share my throw the darn kitchen sink at the problem measures. 

     

    Kind regards,

    I think it is a great idea. @telegrahamhas an excellent YouTube video on converting old APC UPS batteries and solor power backups.

     

    Thanks! DIY panels on the roof, solar charge controller/automatic transfer switch, LiFePO4 batteries, two generators and my last resort 75kWh car battery. During the summer months, the system runs off the solar/batteries for nearly 16 hours. During the winter, it still does the same, but for about half the time. When not on solar, the power system acts as a typical UPS. Been operating like this for a little over one year.

    Anyone running Radion G4 and G5 on the same tank?

    My assumption is that the Gen 4 isn’t on Mobius, yes? I ask because I’ve tested a Gen 4 on Mobius and a Gen 5 Blue, both of which were running their respective versions of AB+. The spectrometer data is below. PAR was the same.

     

    I don’t have a Gen 4 that hasn’t been updated for Mobius, so I can’t share the file. Would the slider positions help? If so, it’s all blue/violet/fake UV sliders to 100%, and the remaining at 24%.

    Gawd. Traffic is horrible! Just got onto I-81 in TN. 10 mph. A nine hour drive will become 13+ by the time we're home. d18898a4850e7a2c2658f205711025d4.jpg

     

    I made the same drive up out of Greenville, SC. Arrived home at 2AM, but totally worth it!

    Unwelcomed growth

    Y’all are awesome. Following along intently.

     

    I do dose kalk, alk is currently 9.0, and I’ve raised it slowly from 7.8. Black egg crate grew the same stuff just as quickly as the white. Within an hour of placing the new rack, it showed growth.
