Diy "Halo" moonlights for Kessil leds!!!

@oseymour : Look at post #37 by SeeCrabRun he lists two links (the blue "here"s) that lead you to the two items you need. incase they aren't showing up on your computer here ya go.

Power Supply: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00068U44I?psc=1&ref_=redir_mobile_desktop&ref_=yo_ii_img

LED Halo light: https://www.superbrightleds.com/mor...e-headlight-accent-lights-black-circuit/1117/

You will need to connect the two together. i cut the tip of the power supply off and just soldered the power supply directly to the led wires.
 
Been running for a couple of months, my kessils run 100% both channels and they are maybe 100F at most , very cool running, maybe your fan needs cleaned ? As I could not melt wax with mine?

I hooked these up tonight. The pictures are not the best quality but they are a lot dimmer in person.

The cables for the lights are short so you'll probably need extra wire to extend them.

I didn't need to solder them, I simply stripped and twisted them together and held in place with electrical tape.

Well mine out lasted the kessil, got some burned out led's in my 350's, kessil sending new 360's to replace so I will have to move my halo's.
 
Anyone else done this 'mod'? Really thinking about giving my 160's the moonlight treatment, but worried about the exposed diodes and pcb hanging over the tank.
 
I did, it's been about a year now. I really like it. I got a switch that you can set to different voltage and I keep it on the lowest voltage it can go without shutting off. It gives a beautiful soft glow. The tank is a 20 tall. On 12 volts it is slightly brighter than the lowest my kessil will go. If that gives you an idea of it's potential.
 
I’ve gone away from kessils. I have 2 UV halo led 80 mm rings I’m
Selling, used to be royal blue but switched to UV for more pop, still uses 2 supplies for dual intensity with diode isolation. And extensions like 6’ each. Just looking to get my money back,
Hali’s are only a few months old. $25 shipped
