ATS - Lighting Option

[vai6921]

Hi Guys,

I just built a very simple ATS inside my sump and wanted to get a decent LED fixture for it. I was looking online and found the following cheap LED.

What do you guys think and is there a better lighting option than this with similar cost? I don't mind spending extra for a better light, but it should have a much more significant impact if I'm going to spend the $.

Thanks,
VP

That should work just fine..
Those "chinese black box" LED fixtures in general are pretty good/reliable..
Not sure about that specific one but mars aqua and galaxy hydro ones are known to be reliable..

Awesome, they have the mars and galaxy for about the same price but those only include 1 switch for all leds. The one i linked has 2 channels it seems.

Go with the one you linked them..
In general they are all the same.. just some with slightly different options..

Would i be able to get away with just the red led that it has @meshmez?

Personally I would avoid those.. There are some claims of those catching fire..
Its just "too cheap" to be right IMO.

I was looking at the kessils but it would be a waste of $ to get that when a mars would do just about the same job I'm guessing. I just placed my order for the Mars!
