[ryanrid]

please find attached manual from ATI (Germany) - it states 24 months warranty

http://www.atiaquaristik.com/en/webdisk/Bedienungsanleitung LED-EN 02-13.pdf

notice that ATI north america only offer 12 months limited warranty according to their site.

I had no questions asked just swapped out for replacement by ATI Australia distributer.

I'm thinking of switching my bulb combo, can anyone give me some feedback. Here is what I'm thinking:

2 coral+
1 purple+
1 actinic
4 blue+

I'm trying g to emulate the look of a 250w 20k radium on a magnetic ballast, which is a lot whiter than most people think.

I tried 2 c+, 1 p+, 5 b+, but it was still too blue. I then swapped a b+ for a second p+, but now I have these like purple/pink overtones.

Any feedback is greatly appreciated!

I'm thinking about getting the 24" 8xT5 Led Powermodule, but would like to get some info from current owners/users. I'm reading conflicting information on whether or not it is required to "burn" the bulbs in for 40-50 hours. Also, does the fixture get really hot to the touch while in operation or just warm? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

 

[flamron]

Burn the bulbs in for best longevity.

My 4 bulb fixture stays cool or slightly warm to the touch at all times.

I went to change the program today and the computer won't recognize the controller. Anyone else ever had this problem ? Or know a solution ?
